What about enablements? What other intrinsic enumerations should we consider?
In XS, which uses CESU-8 for builtin strings for us at our request, how much more expensive would it be to convert two strings to UTF-8 (or rather, UTF-8 together...
Hi @gibson042 I assigned this to the two of us, as we seem to have the most interest -- or patience! -- with this topic ;)
> FWIW – the CESU-8 encoding, if I recall correctly, has better conformance as measured by test262 than the UTF-8 encoding. I don't think we should move backwards. I fully...

I just gotta gripe for a moment: UTF-8 does preserve Unicode ordering CESU-8 does preserve UTF-16 ordering When UTF-16 was designed, AFAICT it could have been designed to have preserved...
Skimming back over the above thread, the meeting of minds seems to be that we want `compareRank`/`compareKeys`/`compactOrdered` to converge on Unicode code point order, which would be the same as...
It is less clear to me whether we have a meeting of the minds on unpaired surrogates.
