ISTR that there was an extended discussion about classifying
non-breaking spaces on this list a while back. But I can't find it now.
Does anyone remember the details?
I am not sure we are talking about the same question.
The issue I am raising is not one of classifying it,
it is that these two different character codes get used
and I don't see an explanation of what's going on.
