Size isn't the only issue; the fact that UTF-16 may (and usually does)
contain null bytes ('\0') rules it out for many applications.

Similarly, anything which expects specific bytes (e.g. '\x0a', '\x0d',
etc) to have their "usual" meanings regardless of context will work fine
with UTF-8 but not with UTF-16 or UTF-32.
