AFAIK, “ä”, “ö”, and “ü” are not accented characters in any natural
language, but characters of their own (umlauts).
In particular, I know for certain that they are not accented in Germanic
languages. Swedish has been mentioned; I can add my native language,
German, to that list.
In German, they are letters,
If you read more carefully, my point was: In German, umlauts are not
"accented characters".
but they collate as either ae, oe, ue
(rarely) or a, o, u (modern style).
Correct, but irrelevant. The OP did not say anything about sorting.
Fallacy: Red herring.
Fallacy: Thinking that I disagree with you.
