\WORD used to handle "ß" correctly, i.e. convert it to "SS"; now it
makes "sS".
(If the current font contains an uppercase ß that would be even better,
but those are rare).
I can’t tell when it changed (some LMTX versions ago) and can’t check
MkIV, since "mtxrun --generate --luatex" doesn’t work.
Hans sent me a fix, I guess it will be included in the next upload.
And yes, uppercase ß (ẞ, U1E9E) would be even better, even according to
the official German orthography rules since 2017, but there are still
not many fonts that have it.
