My understanding is that punycode wasn't originally meant to be used by humans. It was just the workaround used to encode non-ASCII names in ASCII-only DNS records. Later browsers decided to show punycode in the URL bar instead of the decoded value in an effort to fight phishing until "they have a better solution". e.g. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=282270 |
