Since I use 7-bit ASCII exclusively, I've been using
encode = decode = lambda x: x
I haven't proved that's round-trippable, but haven't bumped into an exception
yet.

Then I ignorantly but confidently (indeed, with the cheery confidence only
the truly ignorant can truly enjoy!) vote for your approach that maps the
non-round-trippable cp875 code points to None. Better safe than sorry, by
default. Else 6 of the 7 ambiguous chars will be silent surprises by
default.
