What 巡 means
It represents 巡, meaning “go around” or “make the rounds.”
The base character is far older: Shuowen Jiezi, a Chinese character dictionary compiled around 100 CE, glosses 巡 as “to inspect while moving.” Classical Chinese uses it for patrols; in Chinese it also counts a round of drinks, and Japanese uses it as a kanji for going around.
This code point preserves Taiwan’s CNS 11643-1992 entry T6-2736 for round-trip conversion. Unicode normalization maps it to 巡, so reserve it for records that need that distinction.

1Will Unicode normalization preserve U2F881?
No. NFC, NFD, NFKC, and NFKD all map it to 巡. Preserve the original form when that distinct encoded identity must survive.
