The comments below explain a bit of the reasoning, but I agree. In cases where there is no alternative meaning to the word, this makes for a confusing read, especially since ö is a letter with a completely different sound in several European languages (German, and I think Norwegian and Danish, and my local dialect of Slovenian :P), pronounced as "oe"
If you want to imagine how I read a word like that, this video is a helpful guide to pronounciation of ö:

- mcguire 10y agoMust be even worse since ö had different pronunciations in different languages.
