I would like to point out that [uaxid] is informative
(not normative). While we should keep it in sync,
[lex.name] is where the normative statement about
XID_Continue is.

It reports a straightforward concern; that the set of encodings recognized by std::text_encoding does not include "ASCII" despite that name being unambiguous and recognized by common encoding libraries. The proposed resolution is to add "ASCII" to the set of aliases for that IANA specified "US-ASCII" encoding despite the fact that the IANA character set registry <https://www.iana.org/assignments/character-sets/character-sets.xhtml> does not do so.
We've already fixed a typo and removed a duplicate, I think,
so this sounds good to me.
