Because Emacs does not interpret raw bytes as human-readable
characters, by design.
You could set unibyte-display-via-language-environment to get it
displayed as "ñ", but that's only a display setting, it doesn't change
the basic fact that Emacs is _not_ treating 241 in a unibyte string as
a character.
