One could just take it as a gothic accent to say 'sj' instead of 'sh' or it is gothic to say both as 'sh', depending on which one is more realistic. That 'ddj' in comparison is said to the same sound as in Magyar. That would make spoken 'sh' more probable, when I think about it.

I don't actually follow this at all.
