English-native developers building apps for mainly Western languages can easily introduce encoding i18n bugs that are really unfair for other folks. The rise of emoji in everyday text has been great to force developers to deal with the upper end of the unicode spectrum and make fewer assumptions about inputs. Often in a data processing app I'll throw a few emoji in my unit tests.
