What 慎 means
It preserves a legacy source encoding distinction.
Unicode included FA87 in the FA70–FAD9 range for round-trip conversion with KPS 10721-2000, a character-set standard: converting text into Unicode and back can retain the original source code choice. The Chinese character dictionary Shuowen Jiezi glosses 嗢 as “to swallow.”
When should I keep FA87?
Keep it when the original code point matters.
Unicode normalization can rewrite FA87 as 嗢. Retain the original code point before normalizing an archival source when its legacy distinction matters.
Technical and archival, not conversational.

Questions people ask
1Why can the glyph look different across fonts?
The character identity stays FA87, but the selected CJK font supplies its visible form; a font without coverage may show a missing-glyph box.
