See Textualize#1661 for lots of context. Long story short, in Windows Terminal it looks like any character that would requite the press of a modifier key causes a NUL to appear in the pasted text for that character. This feels like it could be a bug in Windows Terminal and we will investigate and report at some point. Meanwhile though this provides a workaround that has the paste experience work the same as I'm seeing on macOS (and I would imagine in most terminals on GNU/Linux too).
AKA: don't mix octal and hex Dave!
