Question.

How often do you hear Schwarzenegger, and how often do you hear ‘Swordsenegger’?

The assumption that everyone ‘just adapts’ and pronounces it perfectly is in and of itself rooted in a misconception on what something is supposed to sound like.

You’ll have a quizmaster on TV pronounce Vaclav as “Vaklav” while in reality it’s “Vatsjlav”, but you don’t know that. You assume he got it right. Because you don’t know how to pronounce it.

I’d like a link to the clip so I can hear their attempts at pronouncing these things. Because I suspect they got most of these wrong themselves.
