That's only a part of the problem. The other is wine design.

That quote from the standard docs says:
The Default Unicode Collation Element Table does not aim to provide precisely
correct ordering for each language and script; tailoring is required for
correct language handling in almost all cases. 

So, sorting, that  uses it, may give you invalid results for a particular
language. It may be useful for pure collation, but not for plain sorting.
