What 紀 means
It preserves a Taiwanese standard’s variant entry for text conversion. Taiwan’s CNS 11643 is a national standard for exchanging Chinese text; its 2007 Variant National Characters List records 紀 as entry 3-2E56.
Unicode gives this source form its own code point so the distinction can travel into Unicode text.

Questions people ask
1Why does 紀 show as a box on some devices?
Not every system ships a font for the CJK Compatibility Ideographs Supplement block. Where none is installed, the character shows as an empty box; adding a font such as Noto fixes it. The character itself is still correct and copies correctly.
