Follow-up Comment #17, bug #49348 (project octave):
Glad, we agree. Just a minor addition:
32 bits are enough to encode all Unicode characters. The encoding that stores
the Unicode code point in 32bit units (4 bytes) is called UTF-32. (Plus
endianness, …)
Also note that one code point does not necessarily equal one glyph. One glyph
could be made up of one or multiple Unicode code points.
