I understand it 'avoids unneeded conversions' *inside* the RTL, by
adding implicit conversions to the code accessing the RTL.
This is exactly what I was thinking. The conversion is simply passed
on to a different piece of code. So the end result is the same - you
still have conversion.
It's variable: no conversion, one conversion, two conversions. Depends
of the system and the user string type. Say the RTL is changed to UTF16.
If the user chooses to use UTF8String in unix you will have 02
conversions: UTF-8 -> UTF-16 -> UTF-8
