    There are plenty of non ASCII characters that are okay in code. ñ comes to mind. There are also box drawing characters.

      We don’t use them in my project, I only added an exception for ©®™ and such. You can easily whitelist any character range you need. My command looks like this:

      - (! grep -r -I -P '[^\x{00}-\x{7f}©®™°]' src)

        This is goofy, I’m not gonna fail a build because somebody used some random Unicode character. That’s draconian.
