That’s probably for the best. The uppercase Eszett was only added
to Unicode under the rule that the lowercase Eszett’s case rules
are kept unchanged, and the former’s considered normally only ever
typed manually.
Of course, the grammar rules about uppercasing ß have since changed,
but since there’s two valid ways, choosing is the application’s duty.
