Fun fact: At least within the scope of HTML5, which is basically all modern websites these days, the de facto URL spec is https://url.spec.whatwg.org/, and there's nothing in there which says you can just omit the IDNA step if you don't feel like doing it (aside from some security notes about RTL text and homoglyph attacks, which basically amount to "browsers should protect users from spoofed domain names in an implementation-defined manner"). As far as the modern web is concerned, IDN support is simply mandatory.
