You're missing the point. The folks in the rural areas won't be able to use a computer in the first place, because the keyboards are in latin. I've never seen a Cyrillic or Arabic keyboard.

Every keyboard sold in Russia has both latin and cyrillic letters on it.

...and newer Windows default on the local (i.e. cyrillic) layout.

Some clueless linux distros even install cyrillic layout as the only one; which is completely unusable of course.
