Yes, this is disappointing. Take the Nokia 8114 4G feature-phone [1] for example: it does even have "Wireless Emergency Alert" (WEA) [2] configuration in its connectivity configuration screen. However Germany does not implement a WEA compliant notification scheme, and there is no way to install any of the warning apps on the Nokia 8114. And then you forgot another requirement for the App to work - the server that serves those messages needs to actually work (it failed during the test AFAIK) "Embarrassing" is really the only word that adequately describes the current state of affairs.
