  > Not sure why you're being so argumentative about a misunderstanding of definitions? There's no misunderstanding of definitions. The argument is about whether emojis are "really a win win". I don't think they are, for reasons I've explained. Specifically, with regard to needing icons for "berries and maybe more vegetables", you can already do this with small jpgs that would not take much bandwidth, and in general there's more consistency in jpg support across different software then there is in emoji support. Waiting for the Unicode committee to add emoji for every possible object in the world seems like madness to me.
