So, this is a known issue. Thank you for these detailed answers. I wonder how nano is working, though - because even if the script isn't rendered properly, at least its cursor-character/rendering seems to track properly, whereas in vim I do not feel confident editing any lines containing Devanāgarī. Anyway, I've been using vim for 8 years now and this is the first bug that's ever affected me, so I appreciate the wonderful work you all do.
