@rk terminal.app is very primitive in this regard - fixing conformance for me has taken a couple of years. Try one of the front ends built on top of SwiftTerm, mine is Tecolot, but there are a dozen or so out there.

Apropos of nothing, macOS Terminal.app still doesn’t handle BCE correctly with combining characters in Unicode. This problem has existed for at least two decades now, possibly longer.
