Why the styling survives copy and paste
In a word processor, “bold” only changes the display – the letter stays an A. Copy it elsewhere and the formatting is gone. The styles here work differently: Unicode contains separate character ranges for bold, italic, script, fraktur and more. 𝐀 is not a bold-rendered A but a character of its own with its own number.
That is why they survive being pasted into places where you cannot set a font at all: player names, profile names and messages. The price is that screen readers do not recognise them as letters – tolerable for a display name, not for body text.
Umlauts are missing from these ranges. Unicode simply did not include them, because the characters were originally meant for mathematical formulas. Names with ä, ö, ü or ß are transliterated instead.
