"I'm personally incredibly annoyed by just the idea of "Unicode is hard, let's do ASCII", most of the world is non-ASCII, it's just annoying and sad to still see systems that fail when people try to use their native languages." You are correct that most of the world is non-ascii and I am enthusiastic about recognizing that diversity and I am willing to pay certain costs in return for the richness it provides. However, I will point out that certain systems have been deemed crucial and in need of deliberate (and brutal) dumbing-down. Specifically, I speak of the global Air Traffic Control system that is English only[1]. Tagalog/Flemish/Satsugu is hard. Let's (land airplanes with) English.
