Thanks for the help.

So could this be considered a bug in iso-transl-define-keys?

I mean I'd like to be able to enter these both via C-x 8 e
and A-e and while not documented I was previously told to
read the source of iso-transl-define-keys.

I could make my own keymap or transient for the emoji's I
commonly use, but it really would be nice to integrate it
with Emacs' builtin way for entering non-ascii unicode
characters so I don't have to keep track of two different
mechanisms.

Or maybe Lars' Emacs 28 emoji stuff could be released as a
package that could be used with Emacs 28?
