It was hard to tell.
But we get new emojis all the time but AFAIK there are still characters/glyphs or whole scripting systems missing.
You do realise that it’s not the same people working on emoji and ancient scripts, right? The implication that “if they stopped adding so many emojis they’d have more time for hieroglyphs instead” is nonsensical. More work is not suddenly going to be done on rare scripts just because emojis are rejected. If anything, it would probably be the other way around.
(Didn’t research: What’s the status of hieroglyphs and cuneiform?)
Should I google that for you? https://www.unicode.org/versions/Unicode12.0.0/ch11.pdf “Chapter 11: Cuneiform and Hieroglyphs”. Since 2014! Best, Arthur
