I can't read Greek. I think it reasonable to demand that transcribed Greek names are ok in my hypothetical restaurant, but not reasonable to demand alfa omega to be ok, for your dinner reservation. You don't have to support any script.
It is not a technical issue but a social one.

- kps 3y ago> Why is it reasonable to you to demand that people write their own names differently? Because sometimes other people have to read it. Do you actually expect your bank has someone who can read Νίκος Καζαντζάκης and 刘慈欣 and ᠲᠠᠲᠠᠲᠤᠩᠭ ᠠ and משה ברבי מימון הספרדי and ᐱᔭᐃ ᐊᕿᐊᕈᖅ? (Or even notice which one Chrome doesn't render correctly? — Edit: I probably shouldn't blame Chrome; it's fine on his Wikipedia page.)
