ASCII's a 7-bit encoding, so 192 isn't even a valid ASCII character.
Maybe you meant Latin-1 (ISO-8859-1)? And if you did, it's not "only"
Latin-1, 192 is the same in Latin-3 and Latin-5 and probably a bunch
of other encodings. Although your point that it's only the first half
of a UTF-8 character is correct.
