I used this [1] as init.el and ran `emacs --init-directory=.`. I
checked the frame font with (frame-parameter nil 'font) and the output
was NOT "fontset-mine" but rather a XLFD string representing the ascii
font I chose. My 'emoji script font worked. Please let me know if this
is a bug report or an error in my expectation of the output.

[1]:
(create-fontset-from-fontset-spec
 (font-xlfd-name
  (font-spec
   :name "Fira Code" :height 130 :weight 'medium
   :registry "fontset-mine")))

(set-fontset-font "fontset-mine" 'emoji
                  (font-spec :family "Noto Color Emoji" :foundry "NONE"))

(setq default-frame-alist '((font . "fontset-mine")))

Thanks
