Indeed. So by default, Shapefiles can't handle this and using a cfg makes the already complicated handling of Shapefiles not easier. So if there are no strong reasons why to use the outdated Shapefile format, using Geopackage is easier, more flexible and has several other advantages over Shapefiles.

But I think that is a baked in limitation of the (American) specification, rather than a problem with the character set which can be overcome with a cfg file
