I expected \xa0 to give me that character. It still seems strange that it would do anything else. When I read the documentation of \u, I thought it meant "unicode" as opposed to "Emacs's internal code". Since I knew that Emacs now follows unicode for these characters, I saw no reason to consider using \u.
