This has come up due to a debate on the Python development list and I could
not immediately find a definite answer.
When you have the U+D800 - U+DFFF range for creating code points using
surrogate pairs and you take for example U+20045 it will be created as:
U+D840 U+DC45. Are these, by themselves only code units or are they also
code points?
Personally I'm leaning to the code units only answer since you need this
range's code units to build a valid code point. But history has proven
enough times I can be quite mistaken, so I'd like some verification on this.
