And IMO, you're never likely to do so simply by quoting numbers of people who do or don't prefer the current behaviour - compelling arguments are typically around demonstrating how much code would be demonstrably better with the new behaviour, along with showing that code that is detrimentally affected has an easy workaround. Your .chars() proposal targets the latter question, but neither you, nor anyone else in past iterations of this discussion, have yet come up with anything persuasive for the former, that I'm aware of.
