It does? Why on earth should it do that? Filename doesn't
contribute to the
listed filesize on OS X.

Umm. What's this inability to see that data is data is data?

I'm not sure what you mean. I stated a fact - at least on OS X, the
filename does not contribute to the listed filesize, so changing the
encoding of the filename doesn't change the filesize. This isn't a
philosophical point, it's a factual statement.

Changing the encoding of the file name most certainly changes the
file size of the directory.
