Only the first 8 characters count, and identifiers cannot start with a digit.

More like 6.
How would I go about using non-ASCII characters in identifiers?

Use only three lowercase letters from a to r. That's the safest way.

Who is the bigger failure: he who writes invalid lisp code, or he who calls the first a failure while writing equally invalid lisp code with a superficial change?
