Re:Numpy: Plan for dropping Python 2.7 support by wiz21c on Thursday November 16, 2017 @03:54PM (#15716522)
u"" was reintroduced to avoid people of fixing all their strings (see PEP 414 rationale).

that was my point, by moving to python 3, I removed all my "u", the thing other developers not wanted (see PEP-414 again); I loved the "purity".

but removing u was tedious (at best).

In my use case, strings are "string" and binary are "bytes". Which I think is much safer.
