For Ruby, there isn't anymore. But for editors, there may be. Most editors
can find the right encoding I guess but some old editors may not. So it is
still conventional to add an encoding to source code files. Do I add? No.

John,
Here you can find the "git blame" for Rubocop's style check that ensures
you don't have these comment any more. Maybe the Git comments will offer
some insight

Thanks!
Sigh! I have just understood another source of my confusion....
- unless you specify the -E command line option,
- or explicitly set the encoding on every io open....
- you get whatever darn external encoding your user happens to set with
the LANG environment variable....
- so when you read (unless you've set an internal encoding which might
trigger a transcoding),
- the string is encoding in whatever the environment variable said.
Which can, (on some strange users' box), result in much sadness if you do a
regexp match.
Not exactly robust if you expect a largish herd of cats to be running your
scripts.
I guess I had the happy (but incorrect) expectation that the default
external encoding would be the same as the script encoding (aka the default
regexp encoding).
I think I understand it all now... I think.
