Non-8-bit-char DSPs would have char8_t support? Definitely not something I expected, links would be cool.

Why not? except it is same as `unsigned char` and can be larger than 8 bit

    Because "it supports Unicode" is not an expected use case for a non-8-bit DSP?

    Do you have a link to a single one that does support it?
