Will 🙰 survive being pasted?
- Normalisation. Yes. 🙰 is unchanged by NFKC, so it survives normalising systems intact.
- Legacy encodings. 🙰 sits above U+FFFF, so it needs a surrogate pair in UTF-16. Software that counts characters by code unit will report it as two.
- Size. 4 bytes in UTF-8. Character-limited fields — SMS, bios, some form validators — usually count bytes, not characters.
