And that application used UTF-16 behind the scenes if you've run on any
Windows in the past 20 years. The question is whether that counts. Anyone who
has programmed low-level Windows will know this and will wonder if that is
included in the question, even if the code isn't explicit.

And a Windows developer who has dealt with the W APIs will have explicitly
dealt with UTF-16 (for example, CreateFileW). And in this case, my answer
would be "yes, I use more than one encoding: file names are UTF-16, file
contents are something else." How would you expect this developer to answer
your questions?
