At the user-level, yes that was pretty much my understanding as well, which
is why the unibyte:t marker should be considered obsolete.

At the elisp level, unibyte strings and buffers are still very handy
to manipulate undecoded data (such as when talking to an NNTP server).
I don't see any reason why this should ever be deprecated.
