    French is a strange one here - they have “w” (double vé in the alphabet) but it’s used almost exclusively in loan words. So I’m not certain it’s determinative the way it’s presented here.

        The Dutch exclusion makes sense to me. I was reading it as separate letters which made the use of “e” a second time redundant.
