Hard to say ... a designers choice.

Probably because no one ever tested it and provided feedback. One of the
advantages of going to tex meetings is that one can then try to convince
font/macro authors to fix / change.
Anyway, this looks good enough to me:
\startluacode
function document.add_some_characters(target,original)
local characters = target.characters
local upper = characters[0x004C]
local lower = characters[0x006C]
local accent = characters[0x00B7]
characters[0x013F] = {
commands = {
{ "char", 0x004C },
{ "push" },
{ "right", - upper.width + accent.width },
{ "char", 0x00B7 },
{ "pop" },
},
width = upper.width,
height = upper.height,
depth = upper.depth,
}
characters[0x0140] = {
commands = {
{ "char", 0x006C },
{ "push" },
{ "right", - accent.width/2 },
{ "char", 0x00B7 },
{ "pop" },
},
width = lower.width + accent.width/6,
height = lower.height,
depth = lower.depth,
}
end
utilities.sequencers.appendaction("aftercopyingcharacters","system","document.add_some_characters")
\stopluacode
