The I18N WG discussed this in our [18 January](https://www.w3.org/2018/01/18-i18n-minutes.html#item05) teleconference and actioned me with this response.

We would support adding normative language forbidding the interpretation of the `-u-` emoji presentation subtags (and *only* those subtags) assuming that the fallback described by Mark (@macchiati) is not adopted. The WG members present noted that BCP 47 language tags are not a great mechanism for this kind of information--this doesn't really fit as a locale element, the way that, say, number shaping or sorting details do. While more clarity from the CLDR and emoji folks is possible, the greater complexity strikes us as unhelpful.
