It just doesn't make any sense to me that string can't handle #\null but
character can since string is a sequence of characters and it just seems
an ugly inconsistency.
If implementations must support the same range both string and
character, it seems much simpler and have more consistency, IMHO. (of
course it doesn't matter which range it follows.)
