Aren't there just two options: Either this becomes a UCN by token splicing,
or it stays a sequence of individual characters? Can't we just say that?

Isn't 2.2p1 bullet 4 in the same category?

16.4p3 should have a cross-reference to annex B.

I don't know what you mean by "coherent with the rest".

Personally, I'd remove "which shall be no less than 2^31-1" and rely
on annex B for the recommended minimum quantity. (Yes, that changes
the de-jure rules, but de-facto, no implementation will limit to
less than 2^31-1 given the recommendation in annex B.)
