What 芝 means
Unicode treats 芝 and 芝 as canonically equivalent.
Taiwan's CNS 11643-1992 standard assigns this source form the identifier T6-2927. Unicode includes compatibility characters like this so text can pass between the standard and Unicode without losing the source identity. Normalization can collapse 芝 to 芝; the standardized variation sequence 芝︀ keeps that glyph distinction.
A technical record-keeping form, rather than an everyday writing choice.
Use 芝 for ordinary writing; normalization can fold 芝 into it.

1Why does 芝 show as a box on some devices?
Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
