I can only guess the outcry if Perl started obeying LC_COLLATE.
What do you mean, "started"? It's been doing that for years now.
   By default, Perl ignores the current locale.  The "use locale" pragma
   tells Perl to use the current locale for some operations:

and these do not include regex character ranges. LC_COLLATE would only be used for sorting and for string comparisons.
