My perspective, from a non-native speaker: Latin alphabet has happened to overlap with majority of world capital and economy. That is all to it. It's a never-ending baroque timesink to learn English spelling properly, but it did not matter. Computing based on Chinese or Arabic would be a hindrance. Computing based on Hebrew, Cyrillic, Greek or Hindi would not be in any way (although for Slavic languages I do find flexibility of word order and plethora of word forms a hindrance, but it's a linguistic one).
