French is a strange one here - they have "w" (double vé in the alphabet) but it's used almost exclusively in loan words. So I'm not certain it's determinative the way it's presented here.

I don't get your comment. The "w" isn't used in this graph as a single character.

The Dutch exclusion makes sense to me. I was reading it as separate letters which made the use of "e" a second time redundant.
