CLDR makes no difference for the weekday abbreviations in the
various German locales, they all share the same weekday
abbreviations.
http://www.unicode.org/repos/cldr/trunk/common/main/de.xml
has:
<days>
<dayContext type="format">
<dayWidth type="abbreviated">
<day type="sun">So.</day>
<day type="mon">Mo.</day>
<day type="tue">Di.</day>
<day type="wed">Mi.</day>
<day type="thu">Do.</day>
<day type="fri">Fr.</day>
<day type="sat">Sa.</day>
</dayWidth>
<dayWidth type="narrow">
<day type="sun">S</day>
<day type="mon">M</day>
<day type="tue">D</day>
<day type="wed">M</day>

<day type="sat">S</day>

<dayWidth type="short">

</dayWidth>
</dayContext>
</days>
I.e. the 2-letter abbreviations without dots are used for "stand-alone",
"abbreviated"
whereas the 2-letter abbreviations with dots are used for "stand-alone",
"short",
and for "format", "abbreviated" and for "format", "short".
And none of the de_*.xml files overrides this, so it is the same
for all German locales.
So it doesn’t look like there needs to be a difference between
Switzerland and Germany here according to CLDR.
If you really believe there should be a difference, can you please open
a bug with CLDR?
