That's jmf, and he never actually posts proof, but keeps on asserting that Unicode handling in Python 3.3+ is "broken". Actually, it's not. The worst criticism you can level at it is that it may be slower in certain microbenchmarks... but only if you're comparing against a *narrow build* of Python 3.2, which is *buggy*. In other words, Python eliminated an endemic bug, and actually improved performance overall, but worsened it on a very VERY few cases. Most of us have either killfiled him, or are reading this via the mailing list, which doesn't carry his traffic. I suggest you do the same. He's a crank.
