I also use "setglobal bomb", intentionally, in my vimrc; but beware that not all programs, and in particular (on Unix/Linux) not the script loader (y'know, whatever it is that recognises the #! shebang at the start of a script) will recognize (and discard) 0xEF 0xBB 0xBF (i.e., a UTF-8 BOM) at the start of a supposedly ASCII script — so shell scripts (probably among others) need "setlocal nobomb" done either manually or in a filetype-plugin (in an after-plugin since the default $VIMRUNTIME/ftplugin/sh.vim doesn't set it).
