  I don't know much about unicode but presumably it's analogous to characters like "㎏" or "㎒". There are quite a lot of code points for several characters compressed into one glyph.

    Those only exist for compatibility reasons, so you can losslessly round-trip convert from character sets that have those characters.

      And you can bet the new compound will be in Shift-JIS. Most system in Japan still amazingly run in Shift-JIS.
