OK, so where did I go wrong?

     a) ligature fi followed by "le" and the string "file" are 
        compatibility equivalent.

     b) If two strings are compatibility equivalent, then
        under a K-style normalization form, only one of them
        can be valid.
 
     c) The compatibility composition of "file" is the ligature
        fi followed by "le".

     d) Thus ligature fi followed by the string "le" is valid 
        under normalization form KC.

     e) The string "file" is invalid under normalization form KC.

QED.

So if the result e) is false, which of a), b), c), d) are false?

No, ASCII text is a legal sub-set of UTF-8.

8859-1/2, non-ASCII text, is NOT legal UTF-8.

Cheers,

Nico
