That's a blurry definition I can sort of feel what you're trying to convey here but objectively it doesn't make sense.
A brick building for example. Is a brick building the emergent effect of bricks? No. This makes your definition inconsistent because it should fit the brick building but colloquially we know it doesn't fit. A brick building is NOT an emergent effect of bricks. It was deliberately designed from bricks.
So long as the effect is some reduction of entropy and there was no intention in producing such effect then it is "emergent." This is really the only definition that is consistently inline with our intuition of the concept.
