Yeah, it's an attempt at being overly correct where it is, in fact, not correct. It's a little bit comparable to taking a german name like "Oehler" and writing

Yeah, it's an attempt at being overly correct where it is, in fact, not correct.
It's a little bit comparable to taking a german name like "Oehler" and writing it "Öhler", because you realize that "Oe" is a digraph for "Ö" (and the name's pronunciation matches that), when in fact the name "Oehler" is written as "Oehler".
For exactly the same reason you might be tempted to write daemon as "dämon" because, again, digraph and pronunciation match, and the german word Dämon is actually correct, yet it still wouldn't be right to do that for what is known as a "daemon" in operating systems.
