This is a very specific case (there are others like this, but not that many). For companies/organizations, they should just register both variants. For the top-level domain, there should be only one. It would probably be U53F0-wan. Please note that this is very similar to two-letter combinations for countries in ASCII; to a certain extent, people just have to learn them, e.g. that it's 'jp' and not 'ja' for Japan,...
