This would allow us to say "oh, the [HUGE MANATEE]" in emoji.
Leonardo immediately wins the award for best sort-of-Unicode-related pun

But I am expecting a full array of modifiers and ZWJ sequences, to meet
the user need for a female factory-worker manatee with dark skin and red

Manatee families are where it's at.
