For anyone else stumbling about this revelation: It very well wouldn’t be Unicode otherwise now, would it?
There’s a reason linguists and computer scientists sometimes get mental breakdowns over emoji because the know that those same emoji were on the same agenda taking up actual time as discussions about which ancient language or newly discovered grapheme/symbol/lexicogram/whatever should be added first/next. (Not saying emoji aren’t also tremendously important/good/what ever additions!!)
