While I completely agree that it is pointless to reiterate the same
arguments over and over, I disagree that the bikeshed metapher applies.
This metapher (IIUC) describes a trivial design issue that is merely
a matter of taste, rather than having deep technical implications.
Using Unicode or bytes for strings is not of that kind.
