At the risk of starting a flame war, that really isn't true. For starters, i find the mathematical/logical/programming/publishing symbols to be pretty helpful. Furthermore, it should be noted that the UTF-8 helps English typists by allowing them to occasionally insert foreign language content without switching to a totally foreign encoding. (E.g., ligatures and accents become available.)

Unicode has it's place, but the primary beneficiary isn't the
English-speaking world...
