You do not even mention my argument: An indian programmer is maybe not 
used to see greek letters and maybe he/she doesn't know them at all!

Do YOU know sanskrit? Or Indian letters? or Chinese letters?

C and Python do support any kind of Unicode in character strings and 
THAT IS ENOUGH!

My argument was that if you understand greek letters, other cultures 
maybe do NOT. All programmers in all the world can read ASCII though.
