The short answer is because you installed something that depends on the

I actually knew that, but I should've phrased my request a bit clearer.
$ aptitude why libpcre2-8-0
i git Depends libpcre2-8-0 (>= 10.34)
Let's take the Linux kernel as an example, which ofc uses git and has
contributors from all over the world, include those of whose name won't always
fit in ANSI/UTF-8 chars. Let's take Japanese as an example.
UTF-8 can represent all valid Unicode code points (cf
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UTF-8 ). So I think your argument is
incorrect.
