Thank you for your comment. The behaviour of the function is described incorrectly in the current document. For this and related functions that check containment of one string within another, the collation first divides the strings into collation units. If this is done then the issue you pointed out does not arise. Please check the description in the next version of the document and see if it allays your concerns.
