 % When unicode sends its codepoints, they're not
 % sending their best. They're not sending ASCII.
 % They're not sending ASCII. They're sending integers
 % that have lots of problems, and they're bringing
 % those problems with us. They're bringing diacritics.
 % They're bringing non-idempotent lowercasing.  They're
 % bringing graphemes that don't correspond bijectively
 % with printable characters. They're bringing RTL.
 % They're bringing invisible characters.  They're
 % bringing characters that draw outside the character
 % boundary.  They're bringing variable-width
 % whitespace. They're bringing control characters.
 % They're bringing emojis.
 %
 % And some, I assume, are good characters.
 %
 % `SrcStr' is a unicode NFC list, not an ordinary
 % string. you think a string is a list of codepoints.
 %
 % NOOOOO.
 %
 % See it's different, because that's why.
 %
 % This is the cost of diversity, folks.
