The bias in this is whatever belief system one might have to say "ASCII is good enough". Or whatever level of ignorance to believe that ASCII is good enough without understanding that it cannot be. Etc.
I wouldn't call it bias. You can make a claim "I know my use-cases so well that I can guarantee that ASCII will cover it". I'd call that foolishness, not bias.

But what if ASCII is completely sufficient for all the customers I work with?
This is where the accusation crosses into unreasonable for me.
Could there also be bias in the statement "ASCII is not good enough."?
