I'm quite curious what it the relation between the new emojis and the
digitally disadvantages languages. I see none.
I think this was mentioned before on this list, in particular by Mark:
The money collected from character adoptions (where emoji are a
prominent target) is (mostly?) used to support work on not-yet-encoded
(thus digitally disadvantaged) scripts. See e.g. the recent announcement
at
http://blog.unicode.org/2018/02/adopt-character-grant-to-support-three.html.
