Does Emacs have a concept of sort order depending on language? If
not, why not?
Because characters that have different order depending on the language
have different codepoints inside Emacs, and thus the issue doesn't
exist.
Or am I missing something?
Well, in German dictionaries you will generally find words with ö
interspersed with those with o, but within the letter O, o>ö. So both "Ode"
and "öde" appear under O, but the former before the latter. Both, however,
appear before "oder".
