That is most definitely not true. EPUB OPS 2.0 documents are XHTML, which inherits the XML default encoding of UTF-8. Accurate rendering then just means ensuring that all encoded glyphs are available, which is merely a matter of embedding font containing any characters not provided by the Adobe default set.

What do you mean by "real unicode"? UTF-8 and UTF-16 are just different encodings of the same character set.
