en_US.UTF-8

Without -b, the filename in Dired is two binary characters, \300 and
\265.  With -b, the filename in Dired is four characters, \265

I'm using Emacs 25.3.1 and ls (GNU coreutils) 8.28

It sounds like Andreas is seeing the same behavior as me.  What
behavior are you seeing when deleting the file with -b vs no -b?
