Take the example of FileExists:

All the routines you name (fileexists, filegetattr etc) will become
rawbytestring and accept both utf8 and utf16, and then only in the
implementation figure out if conversion is necessary. (to the encoding of
the OS)
Better.
And they will accept both those encodings in both RTLs. The different RTLs
are more for the classes hierarchy.
OK.
Much of this discussion is because of lack of understanding of the fpc
