No. In Delphi "String = UnicodeString", but AnsiString still exists as

Sorry, but I don't understand.
According to the "TAnsiRec", such a "New String" not only has an
encoding ID, but also an "ElementSize" specification.
So an "ANSIString" that uses the TAnsiRec for it's implementation
obviously is capable of holding of 1, 2 and 4 byte encoded data.
Trust me, I don't understand this decision of Embarcadero either...
Here you have the documentation on that topic:

PS: Sorry for the private Mail, Michael, but somehow when I answer a
mail from you using "Answer to List" I have you as "To" instead of the list.
