...I don't know our linguists (ÚPJC) but this will be very hard to do. Orthographic rules are very rigid and cannot be changed so easy. I remember last great changes in czech orthography or several years ago changes Germans made. It was always painful.
First of all: very nice question!! I just "lost" one point, but learned something new. I was aware of the collation issue but I thought 'A' to 'Z' didn't make room for it.
Regarding our orthography changes (I'm German): at least it allows me to write the way I'd like to: most probably there was/is/will_be a time and place where the spelling I use was/is/will_be valid 🙂
But it definitely makes it really hard to help your kids through (school) homework... Ooops, getting off topic. Sorry. Again: Nice QOTD!
