Actually not -- (string 128) returns the multibyte string consisting of the single char U+0080, which is exactly what you get by typing "\u0080".
It confuses me, too. That's a C1 control char and Emacs doesn't escape it when printing, but it's displayed as `\200`.

(I don't think changing that display to \u0080 would break any compatibility; we should consider doing that for all C1 controls, U+0080..U+009F.)

Even more confusing is that "\x0080" means the same as "\u0080" but not the same as "\x80", which is a unibyte string of a single raw byte.
