I think we need a bit more explanation that that. Why would we want to
use backticks for Unicode strings? Why we need to deprecate existing
functionality for that - aren't there other alternatives that do not
require it?

Also, it does not spell out what you mean by "deprecate" - would it be
just a line in documentation? An warning/error message? Something else?

"Backward Incompatible Changes" seems to be incorrect - if you plan to
remove backticks or change its meaning at some stage, it certainly will
impact scripts that use it. Even if it's just an error message, it can
fail tests and cause other incompatible behavior.
