No, the point is that the release tarball contains UTF-8 info files, and that these are transformed to ASCII for installations that prefer ASCII info files. cp-ascii's UTF8-to-ASCII transformation loses information; we can't ship ASCII info files in the tarball and then transform those to the UTF-8 originals. An ASCII default would have been better years ago, but these days UTF-8 is the typical default encoding in GNUish distributions and most users will be better off if UTF-8 is the default.
