Re: [csswg-drafts] [css‑fonts‑4] Add `emoji` as a keyword to `unicode‑range` (#4573)

Unicode blocks are usually not very useful. They are an artifact of the character assignment process and history and are not designed to fit any other purpose. Multiple blocks for one script is one problem (and growing). Blocks also include unassigned code points, and sometimes unrelated characters. That's why the Script and Script_Extensions properties are generally recommended and used.

FYI Outside of the ISO script code, "Kana" refers to both Hiragana and Katakana. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kana
