That conclusion is mistaken.  Emacs char-tables are designed to handle
memory very efficiently.  In particular, if just a small number of
characters have a non-nil property value, the memory consumption of
such a char-table will be very low, and will grow and shrink as needed
if additional values are modified from or to nil.
