In my biased opinion, I would imagine Gmail would want to use you and your emails for every ounce of data they can squeeze out of it. However proton is a paid service who doesn’t sell your data, with much less Human Resources than google, therefore less language support. They add things as fast as they can get around to them. If you inquire they might be more apt to add the support if they have someone on staff that can do it.

The EU should mandate support for its native alphabets (probably via Unicode) for IT service providers that provide services in the EU.

It’s not really new. It’s just uncommon and it can be abused to make different spellings that look like English spellings but aren’t.
It’s kind of like goog l e.com vs goog I e .com but on a much larger scale.
