[issue39454] when \\u in byte_string , byte_string.decode('raw_unicode_escape') maybe has problem

[SilentGhost]

SilentGhost <ghost.adh at runbox.com> added the comment:

Why are you using this type of encoding on this bytes object? It specifically says in its description that "Existing backslashes are not escaped in any way.". If you'd use unicode_escape instead, you would be able to round-trip back to your original string.
