Sure, we could resolve this problem by either a) giving these languages a separate fitting string type to use internally or externally (Rust for instance can use 'string' everywhere) or b) integrating their semantics into the single one so they are covered as well as first-class citizens. And coincidentally, that would fit JavaScript perfectly, which is rather surprising being off the table in a Web standard. Yet we are polling on having a "single" "list-of-USV" string type, likely closing the door for them forever with everything it implies.
