Doesn't work in Mii names

These escape sequences do not work in Mii names. If people want to test farther, go ahead, but I think I know why.
I think it's because an escape sequence is used to display the Mii name and nested sequences are disallowed to avoid infinite loops.
For example, if I made a Mii that displayed the player's name inside itself.
Also, this is what the name of my Mii looks like:
001A 0800 0001 0032 0047 0075 0069 006C 0000 0000 | [ESCAPESEQUENCE]Guil
In-game I see this ([?] represents a question block):
[?]2Guil
Note that the name is not red in-game either.
