it's a german word so it's pronounced th german way

They always make an effort to pronounce it how it's supposed to.
We typically use the German words as there is no need for another word. It's the same with any word that becomes part of the English language such as Karaoke from Japan. 
With the pronunciation, a word like Reich can't really be pronounced in English. There's a number of possible reasons why the German pronunciation is see but the most typical will be: a) historical accuracy and b) it wouldn't sound like the same word and c) again, it's a hard word to pronounce if you used the English alphabet 

It'd end up sounding similar to the word "Rake" or like "Reish" (depends upon how you use the CH sound - I'm tired and can't remember the rules around it xD) 
Hahaha omg this is so interesting! I always think it's funny when Americans or Brits try the CH sound, but I think that in the same way we sound weird doing the "th" sound from "the" hahaha

This is how deep linguistics can get (and deeper o.o) 
It's true it sounds weird but it's kinda nice too. The fact that people try to pronounce it properly rather than to be a bit arrogant. It's a part of culture that I really like :3

(last comment of me:
just to clarify (since there was drama about my opinion about solovey in the past already), i have nothing against the design itself but the symbol being missleading)
