1. -E loads the feature bundle. So if the 5.36 feature bundle is to include utf8.pm, so will -E, right?
2. The feature bundle represents a “best, most modern” set of default Perl features. The proposal will make Perl at its “best, most modern” complicate a simple “¡Hola, mundo” with a need to encode--and no indication of what’s wrong if that encoding is missing. Worse, the STDIN-piped variant of that code will still work as usual.
