No, it is not a guess.  It picks the first in a specified list of
character encodings that can validly represent all the characters in the
post.  When I post plain test it uses plain text.  If I need a few
accents it will use ISO-8859-1.  In this case it had to use the most
general UTF-8.  The list is of my choosing (though I think I've kept the
suggested default value) so no guess is involved at all.

If I want to post for the lowest common denominator reader, I ask for my
post to have Content-Type: text/plain (implied charset=us-ascii) and the
software will tell me if I've used any non-ASCII characters and it will
ask me what to do about them.  The posting format was a fully-conscious,
deliberate decision of mine.  I knew there would be people using
software that would not see the characters I had types.
