[issue22767] `separators` argument to json.dumps() behaves unexpectedly across 2.x vs 3.x

[R. David Murray]

R. David Murray added the comment:

No, it is introducing the unicode that is the problem.  Your first example is entirely binary.  It is only when you *mix* binary and unicode that you have encoding problems (because python doesn't know the encoding of the binary data...well, more precisely it doesn't have one).

This confusion is a large part of why python3 exists :)
