So... python should change the longstanding definition of the latin-1
character set? This isn't some sort of python limitation, it's just
the reality of legacy encodings that actually exist in the real world.

I don't understand what any of this has to do with Python. Just
output your text in UTF-8 like any civilized person in the 21st
century, and none of that is a problem at all. Python make that easy.
It also makes it easy to interoperate with older encodings if you
have to.
