Thinking about it I entirely agree.  An 80% increase in memory foorprint 
where the slice objects are being used with Python 3.3.0 Unicode would 
have disastrous consequences given the dire state of said Unicode, which 
is why some regular contributors here are giving up with Python and 
using Go.

the Pixies at the bottom of my garden before they go night nights.
