it’s not necessary. they can still use the already made Helvetica glyphs in these languages. they shouldn’t be putting effort in where it arguably isn’t needed.
Reith does not contain many language glyphs right now, so I imagine other fonts will be sourced. But the Beeb could commission Reith variants in Arabic, Hirigana/Katakana, Korean, Kanji etc

But the entire point of Reith is for a typeface that they own outright and don't need to pay royalties to use.

Making internationalised fonts is also very expensive, and for these niche uses, using a pre-made font may make more sense

It's one of those rare moments when I come into the mocks section and see a set that 'could' be used in the future, this is one of them.
