Comment by IMSoP:
Yes, which is why I placed the emphasis on **the specification** using ASCII, rather than **the
language** using ASCII. It would be possible to write the entire specification without any reliance
on ASCII, by specifying every byte numerically; it's just more convenient for programmers to
use a different notation.
