Description
Return response unchanged and count its Unicode code points.
Identity and survey records can preserve a person's stated wording, display preference, source, and missing-value convention. A formatter should not infer an identity or turn a recorded label into permission for publication.
Return response unchanged and count its Unicode code points.
When to use this tool

How to use the tool and how it works

}Limitations and assumptions
- No categories, normalization, inference, or judgment about identity is applied; code points are not graphemes and reuse permission is not established.
- Inputs must satisfy both the field types and the cross-field conditions above. Invalid input causes an error; a successful false flag or documented placeholder is a different result.
Alternative or Complementary methods
