LC_ALL=C is not guaranteed to do that. There is no requirement that it use native byte values; on the contrary, it is required to not use native byte values in some circumstances (e.g., z/OS EBCDIC environments).

This is a complicated area, unfortunately, and it's not something that can easily be condensed into a single line in a help message.
