Rice cooking is kind of complex, because you should boil away most water and not cook any longer, and you are not really able to inspect the level of water. 20 minutes works in your setup, but will it work on different stove with different

Unicode is not locale-dependent, just mapping from graphemes to (font) glyphs is locale/font dependent.
