the original suggestion was a unicode -ǝ or -Ǝ
That was a joke, right? I don't know about you but there's no way that I'm going to be able to find the codepoint for that symbol and then work out the right combination of keys to press to generate it for any given combination of keyboard+shell+term+OS in a shorter space of time than it takes to type -Mstrict -w

Bad idea. There are still many ASCII letters left in perlrun. perl isn't ls. And most people, including me, don't know from memory how to enter -ǝ or -Ǝ. Using perl should be easy, not hard. How about using the unused "-r" (as in run), making perl -r 'say "hi"' the shorter equivalent of perl -Mstrict -w -E 'say "hi"'?
