Despite this malicious and false accusation, your post only confirms
what I wrote above is true and what Martin wrote was false. Even with
the desperate and absurd semantic game you tried to play, like falsely
equating "fairly reliably" with "reliably", in a database as large as
this a low probability of failure does not guarantee "if the data
decodes as UTF-8, it *is* UTF-8".
