It isn't. Yes there's lots of bad stuff, but there's also lots of good stuff too

All the matter in our universe was sucked into the black hole and then coalesced into all the forms that exist now. (Presumably, and if this hypothesis is true)

But that's not what we're talking about. It's extremely extremely rare for a language to adopt a new written character.

I'm pretty sure that's not actually how language works.

There's no umlaut in english, so it doesn't signify any sound in english words, it's merely a stylistic choice, kind of like writing a z at the end of a word instead of an s.
