In this specific example, could it just be that U+2713 CHECK MARK has no
emoji presentation, or am I reading emoji-data.txt wrong?

From my emacs.git copy:

    # ================================================

    # All omitted code points have Emoji=No

    […]
    2705          ; Emoji                # E0.6   [1] (✅)       check mark button

    2728          ; Emoji_Presentation   # E0.6   [1] (✨)       sparkles

Notably absent: 2713?  So 2714 does vary with (✔️) & without (✔) VS-16,
but not 2713?
