Xiaomei commented to me in person that one of the ways that FF gets to their superior behavior is by "cheating" and defining word boundaries as spaces.  Which is not true for languages like Japanese (which don't have spaces) and thus require use of a heuristic (like the one provided by ICU).

At least I think I'm recalling the conversation with Xiamoei correctly.  She should correct me if I'm wrong! :)

It might be useful to consider "cheating" like FF for the complex cases if that will make our behavior much better.  I don't know.
