It occurs to me that this entails abandoning the mythical equivalence
of text and bytes <URL:https://stackoverflow.com/a/6163129/70157>, and
instead deliberately choosing an encoding whenever reading or writing

I suggest that on a modern Debian system the default assumption when
reading or writing text should be to use the “UTF-8” encoding.
