Austria can also be in the wrong here?
There was an article that some Brits are more likely to be stripped of UK citizenship and they are more likely to be non-white and of some religions..the law is not applied equally potentially, though that is "just Home Office things".
I cannot help but think she's being made an example of, not by the legal system but by the Home Office bosses.
The UK courts have to rule within UK law and it is possible this is just how it works, the law on stateless is more a UN law and I know The Netherlands has also fallen foul of it at some point.

I don't think it's that unusual or is because she was of Bangladeshi heritage. You can't update
fundamental laws like that by just what's in the news cycle.
An Austrian friend of mine lost his citizenship because he joined the French Foreign Legion.
I looked it up and it's still the law and it's says explicitly even if it makes the person stateless.
