Always kind of bugged me, something like Korean Maple is designed under the assumption that no one there is from the states, but they allow English text fine. Why doesn't gMS do the reverse?

It's English text but it's not the same. I think the Korean/Japanese character encodings include their own versions of Roman characters, so that's why. Don't quote me on this though, just a guess.
(I predict that someone's going to be a smartass and quote this post.)
e.g.
Chinese punctuation: 。,:;“”
English punctuation: .,:;""
I remember there also being a way to type abc, but I don't recall how.

But for the most part it is the same, those versions only come up when you are in the (for example, japanese keyboard) in MSE. But I think the main reason is because we don't have a need for those, so why have it in there?

I would assume that the default maplestory font not having Chinese characters/whatever language would have something to do with it.
