Since from what I've tried, things seem to work, I'd really like to know what precisely does fail from the opponents of utf-8b.

Seems like what will fail is taking one of these utf-8b
decoded names and passing it to some external library
that uses it as a filename without knowing that it has
to use utf-8b to encode it. Then the funny characters
won't be encoded the way they were originally, and it
won't compare equal to existing filenames that it should
be equal to.
