Someone below noted already that grapheme clusters are, at least for dealing with humans, a much better thing to talk about than bytes or abstract characters (code points). The statement "Unicode assigns the same number to the character." was indeed correct, though. It's just that character is such an overloaded word (meaning either byte, code point or grapheme); but for Unicode at least it is synonymous with code point.
