OTOH, there is only one character set that matters, and any system using a different one is, by that fact alone, broken.

I said only one that matters. So I already did pick one. It’s called Unicode.

UTF-8 and UTF-16 pretty much do everything, but if you have a UTF-16 emoji in a UTF-8 system, you’ll have a bad day. :(
