He admired the orthography of Breton more than Breton itself. More importantly he mistakenly believed that the phonology of Middle Cornish and Modern Breton were very close.
UC writes pyu. Like UC yu 'is' pyu leads to pronunciation with a rising diphthong [ju:]. 
The UCR and KS spelling pyw is like UCR and KS yw: well attested and phonetically unambiguous.
