No, it is not all that matters. Your character reconition scheme only works if you go by the assumption that it uis UTF-8.

I complained that I had no way of knowing WHAT encoding is used when the CHRS kludge is absent.

No indeed.The world of character encoding in Fidonet is wider than that of ASCII and UTF-8. Just determining that it is utf-8 or not is not good enough.
