What 奄 means
It preserves a source-specific form of 奄.
Taiwan’s Ministry of Education dictionary traces 奄 through the Shuowen Jiezi, an early Chinese dictionary.
Technical and archival: it marks a source encoding.
When software normalizes Unicode, 奄 can become 奄; Unicode 17.0.0 says a standardized variation sequence preserves the distinction.

Questions people ask
1Why does 奄 show as a box on some devices?
Not every system ships a font for the CJK Compatibility Ideographs 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.
