Yes, but my code is clearer, IMO.

Never. I guess I got confused with coding-system-base.

Not really, no. UTF-8 is special here, in that we believe we know how
to compute the byte position exactly, which is not true when there are
conversions. Some profoundly non-UTF-8 encodings have that type, but
then apply conversions that make them something very different.

Only if they ask for 'exact'.

They asked for it, didn't they?
A more important problem is that we handle type before accuracy, so
when exact is requested, the type checks should be bypassed, except
with UTF-8.

Do we have a UTF-16 encoding without a signature?

This code tested OK for me, feel free to change if you have a test
that fails.
