On github utf8_encode have ~500.000 results and utf8_decode have ~400.000.
I too guess that 7.2 shouldn't introduces a BC like that. Maybe on 8.0.
Currently I guess that it is a good shortcut, but I really don't know
if make senses to keep it (utf16 or others are not implemented, only
utf8, for other side, utf8 seems to be more common).
