I thought it was a well thought-out and clearly written answer to a question that comes across as dismissive.
Yes, I wrote it this dismissive because I already knew the answer
and obviously don't agree with the whole idea but it's a good
answer for people who don't know the relationship between emojis
and character encodings.
Nothing patronising about it. I find it interesting, and educative.
Just like the comments that say "ASCII ought to be enough for everybody"?
