I can only repeat what I said before: I call it utf8b because that's
the established name for the algorithm it implements.

That algorithm was originally designed with UTF-8 in mind (and only
meant to be applied for UTF-8), however, it remains the same algorithm
even though PEP 383 widens its application.
