Valid characters are usually not the full ASCII set at all, so why not pick and chose from unicode as well?

Or why not full unicode text support? Is there any real reason besides "some people might want emoji and I don't like that"?

They might use their native language too!

But no, the totality of the argument always reduces to: "I'm not used to this and would find it inconvenient"
