When a public administration demands that you write to them in the
official language of your country and its corresponding alphabet
(because, even if it's not written anywhere, they obviously couldn't
care less of stuff in other ways), are they "forcing something down
your throat?"

Formats are like alphabets. 

Demanding a **format** is not "forcing stuff down people throats".
Demanding that others use the same software as you do is.
