No, the doublin makes the [e] into [i:].

So we should write fiid and niid then? In German, if you wanted a word that’s pronounced like the English need, you’d write nied.

Anyhow, just removing the second e without replacement would not help in knowing how to pronounce the word by reading it.

Nah, let the native speakers decide how they want to write their language. I just wanted to take a bit of a jab towards how messed up their vowels are.
