The bigger problem is that hyph-sr-latn and hyph-sr-cyrl differ (and
both make errors). Take a look at this concrete example. This is an
excerpt from my list of hyphenation exceptions for Serbian Cyrillic. I
added a Latin equivalent of every word. This is what you get with
sr-latn and sr-cyrl loaded together. As you can see, Latin version
behaves much better.

At least for the words from this list, there is no difference between
sh-latn and sr-latn.

I hope that the above example might be helpful.

Please do. That would be great.
