Yes.

I disagree that that would be better. Every map is a source of error and also
makes it difficult to follow what is going on (i.e. difficult to maintain).
Best is only to use the common intersection of all the valid charsets and not
map anything to anything else.
We can map it and it's OK but it's not good in the long run. I've learnt that
the hard way over many years.
But since we do string-upcase already, it doesn't matter anymore. Better hope
we don't break it by accident one day (or right away), though.
