Indeed.  Emoji characters apparently mean whatever their users want them to
mean.  Such meanings may be perceived differently by various users or
communities, as the subject line indicates, and these meanings are subject
to change without notice.  Any effort to standardize such a conversion
seems doomed, but someone with funding would probably try it anyway.

Best regards,
