Well, *pedantically* that's true of any ISO 8859 coding system too,
since ISO 8859 doesn't specify what might appear in C1 at all. In
practice for 1252
1. The only C0 controls you'll commonly see are \t, \r, and \n.
2. The set of C1 controls that are defined is limited IIRC (but
Microsoft does go around changing it without warning, so I could
be wrong by now ;-).
3. It's line-oriented text (even if long-lines): you'll very probably
see \r and \n only as \r\n, you might see only \n and no \r, and
you'll not see "random" use of \r or \n.
