The thesis of this RFC is that the first bullet is a falsehood.

While there is some precedent for the "`\xXX` is code point"
interpretation in some languages, the majority do seem to favor the
interpretation in some languages, the [majority] do seem to favor the
"`\xXX` is code unit" point of view. The proposal of this RFC is
side-stepping the distinction by limiting the input range for `\xXX`.

The third bullet is a strawman since we have not yet released 1.0, and
thus everything is up for change.
