A lot depends on the readership you are aiming at. If you are writing
for just one person or a target audience who can all read your preferred
character set, there is no reason not to use it. If you are writing for
a larger audience and do not want to exclude some potential readers,
then you may have to limit your choice. If you are writing comercially,
you cannot afford to upset or alienate a single customer.

As a general rule, the larger the readership, the greater the
constraints which fall upon the writer. A lot of time and extra work
(and possibly frustration) on the part of one writer will save a much
greater amount of time wasted in total by hundreds of frustrated
readers.
