I think you missed the part where the RFC is about which Unicode is bad for protocols and data formats, and so which Unicode you should avoid when designing those from now on, with an RFC to consult to know which ones those are. It has nothing to do with "what if I have a file with X" or "what if I want Y in usernames", it's about "what should I do if I want a normal, well behaved, unicode-text-based protocol or data format".

It's not about JSON, or the web, those are just example vehicles for the discussion. The RFC is completely agnostic about what thing the protocols or data formats are intended for, as long as they're text based, and specifically unicode text based.

So it sounds like you like misread the blog post, and what you should be doing is now read the RFC. It's short. You can cruise through https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc9839.html in a few minutes and see it's not actually about what you're focussing on.
