YES!
Emojis are much more important as encryption. Give the people a loooooot of emojis, they'll forget encryption.
CryptoMojis?

When do they start culling some of the unused cruft?

There are so many emoji that finding a particular one is tedious.
I wish Apple would implement a Slack-like interface where I can start typing the name of an emoji and I'll see all of the emoji whose names match what I've typed so far - so if I typed "dog", it would show me a list of "dog", "dog face", "hot dog", "guide dog", and "service dog".

How exciting!
In about 10 years, the whole world will be united by one universal language: Emoji.
What the Egyptians tried to accomplish about 5000 years ago will finally happen.

This is awesome! I quit writing in my texts and I just send emojis instead. Saves me time and no one knows what I am talking about.
Too bad Apple wasn't smart enough to build into iOS the ability to update the emoji versions for older devices.
I have to be careful not to send squares to my friend that's stuck on iOS 10 and 12.
Either that or the ability to choose which emoji version I want to use in a message.

I've come to realize that I only need about 5 emojis for day to day use. Maybe if it was easier to navigate the huge list of them, but for now, I'm good with 5.
To ALL, this is a serious question, please don't laugh.
How does one represent T&A with Emojis ???
Does one even exist ???

Navigating the ever-growing list is a huge problem. And in my opinion, keyword-based emoji suggestions don't work that well and sort of defeat the point. If I have to type "monkey" to find the monkey emoji, it's already more steps than just sending the word "monkey."
Apple needs to come up with a better way to display and sort emojis.
Note that Apple engineers are not wasting their time by inventing thousands of new emojis every month. These are all coming from the standards committees. But if Apple fails to implement them, they will show up as weird ? in emails and text messages. They have no choice but to design them. Also designers are not the same people as hardware and software engineers. Designing fonts is not going to delay the next iPad in any way. They already have a number of designers hired, and it makes sense to keep them busy anyway.
I wonder just how many of the emojis are actually used. I suspect that 20 - 30 of them would account for 95% of all uses.
Not going to get into it (off topic)... If it doesn't pop right to mind, I wouldn't worry about it.
There's different kinds of rail vehicles, which are widely popular outside of North America. You've got a streetcar, an LRT, heavy rail, a monorail, a basic train, a bullet train, a choo-choo train and a couple of others. All relevant to the people who ride them.
Because the people wanting the dude in the veil contacted the Unicode Consortium. Anyone can do it, that's who decides what new emojis come out. Apple/Google/Microsoft/etc just adopt the unicode standard.
