If code points have nothing to do with String why do you propose to do it
with String? And how is this related to the point anyway?

You have commented out the definition:

   L = aΣ*¶

Or in BNF

   L ::= a <star> ¶
   <star> ::= <empty> | <code-point> [<star>]

String as defined by RM 3.5.2 (2/2) does not represent Σ*. It could
represent some encoding of Σ*, which is the point.
