What 奢 means
It reads as 奢 (shē). In ordinary Chinese, the character can describe wasteful spending. The classical Chinese text Zixu Fu also uses it for exaggerated speech.
Why does 奢 have its own code?
To preserve a Taiwan CNS source form. CNS 11643-1992 is Taiwan’s character-encoding standard; plane 6 lists 奢 as T6-4756 among variant forms. This code preserves the source entry in conversion to Unicode and back; for ordinary new writing, use 奢.
