I have been complaining about getting tricked by !theonion@midwest.social several times over. Oh would I love to be tricked right about now.

The Latin alphabet is overloaded. Words using the same script will inevitably be interpreted by other languages using their own sound systems. Orthography is bad. Plus, it'd be like asking a Spanish speaker why they say "eschool" instead of "school" (phonotactics).
