What do you mean by collation here? (What is the context?)
Separate from this (which I’m trying to find an answer to), you’ve made comments about everything using utf16/ucs2 referencing apple platforms. We consider every utf16/ucs2 api to be legacy and all new APIs for years at this point (including the filesystems) are expected to be utf8. UTF16 is not something we have any interest in adding anywhere new.
(I did just look at the thread title again, and I’m still confused about how this went from floating point aliasing to utf16)
