[This is more of a meta-question than a question]
If some misbehavior is found (seemingly in emacs) surrounding exotic unicode chars
how does one debug whether its an emacs thing or a font thing?
⟮ ⟯ ⟪ ⟫ 𝗮𝗯𝗰𝗱𝗲𝗳𝗴𝗵𝗶𝗷𝗸𝗹𝗺𝗻𝗼𝗽𝗾𝗿𝘀𝘁𝘂𝘃𝘄𝘅𝘆𝘇
The above chars were being surrounded by many spurious lines
I thought that this was emacs trouble
Changing font seemed to change/reduce trouble -- so font not emacs??
However I also see that some editing actions around these chars makes the problem
disappear (sometimes; not sure when)
So now what?

Make a screenshot with the problematic display and report all the
details via "M-x report-emacs-bug RET".
