Given that u: 7: does what is needed to convert utf8 to unicode, it was
thought unnecessary to provide another X u: to do this. Perhaps there
should be another stdlib verb for it?

I'm happy current 7&u: because emulating the current behavior had 7&u implemented the other way round would be inefficient.

But I would also favor adding another verb in addition to ucp=: 7&u: say uucp (unicode ucp)

uucp=: u:@:(7&u:)
