There seems to be some confusion about what name:Zsye is about. While the ISO 15924 script code 'Zsye' is labelled 'emoji', the edit proposed by Ferdinand0101 mainly introduces Regional Indicator Symbol pairs for countries. These pairs tend to resolve to those countries' flags, e.g., 🇳🇱, which you may see rendered as the Dutch flag, is composed of two of these Regional Indicator Symbols that represent 'N' and 'L' (i.e., 🇳 and 🇱). If done correctly, this would mean you could search OSM for a flag copy/pasted from somewhere (like chat), and get the region represented by that flag as a search result. So to me it seems that this isn't so much about getting the emoji for the Statue of Liberty to resolve (although that is possible), but more about being to use country flags to search OSM for the corresponding country. Of course the proposal should reflect on how to ensure the correct Regional Indicator Symbol pairs are added. One way to do this, is by using the exsiting ISO3166-1:alpha2 and flag keys, and verify that the flag rendered via Regional Indicator Symbols matches the flag-value.
