Today I found that #LibreOffice Writer has a poor support for Asian Phonetic Guides (compared to Word). That's a shame.

This is great news.

I am fully conscious that LibreOffice is open source so I can't make any demands - only suggestions, which you are free to ignore.

My suggestion is that languages from wealthy countries should not be the priority. Wealthy countries are more able to to afford proprietary software.

The so-called global south and east is where a LibreOffice in their language would have most impact.
