This is odd, though: HEAVY EQUALS SIGN, at least as of Unicode
15.1.0, does not have text/emoji variant selectors. Other signs
that do, include ➕ ➖ ➗ ✖️, but 🟰 is missing from this set.
Nevertheless, my iPhone does offer it as an emoji for text
messages. Does Unicode need to move this way in order to match
“existing practice”?

<p>I'm speculating a bit here, but 1F7F0 may be emoji only. That is,
you'd use "=" as the "text" version. (Or some other existing
character). <br>
</p>
<p>I know, I should dig around a bit instead of speculating, but
don't have the time right now.<br>
