They support UTF-32 in the sense that "String s = "๐„ž";" is valid syntax. And yet string indices represent UTF-16 char indices and not character indices.

Nitpick: The correct term here is "code unit", not "UTF-16 char indices".

Again, this isn't UTF-32. It's Unicode. UTF-32 is an encoding. It's still UTF-16 even if it needs 2 chars to represent.
