Isn't this a lot more idiomatically translated as
'hello world'.encode('base64')
or is there still too much worry that this will require
encoding/decoding ascii bytestrings?
Your additional points about base32 and base16 still apply to
.encode(), as they each result in an unknown encoding LookupError.
