    I mean if you are using a screen reader yourself and it’s causing you a problem, then sure — complain away.

    Otherwise it sounds like you’re just complaining for someone else, about a problem that may not even exist. “Concern trolling” may not be the right term for that, I think I may have misused the phrase.

    But: do screen readers actually have difficulty with the letter thorn? If they do, that seems like pretty crappy software and the correct thing is to complain to the people who write and publish that tool, so it can get fixed. Not tell everyone to limit their text to ascii.
