Of course, thank you.

Whether that technically qualifies as "memory representation" or not is
irrelevant: it's still a low-level implementation detail of text.

The relevance is meandering across the discussion, and it's good to have the same definitions for terms. Unicode code points are abstract notions with meanings attached to them, whereas UTF8/16/32 are concerned with their representation.
