I’d treat these as glyph changes within fonts.

Aihe: Major vendors changing U+1F52B PISTOL depiction from firearm to squirt gun
Hello,
I'm curious if there has been any discussion on all the major vendors changing this emoji's depiction? (https://blog.emojipedia.org/all-major-vendors-commit-to-gun-redesign/)
As a user I find it troublesome because previous messages I've sent using this character on these platforms may now be interpreted differently due to the changed representation. That aspect has me wondering if this change is in line with Unicode standard conformance requirements.
Regards,
Abe Voelker
