I think we should remove the deprecations and add more explicit Javadocs that spell out that there are oddities with the defaultCharset() depending upon the operating system. Note this problem has been in existence since Java 1.4, and we did nothing about it for a considerable amount of time. Plus in Java 18 forward we simply don’t need it, as Gary said.
