What 𬽎 means
It belongs to the 戞/戛 family of written forms.
Chinese character-variant dictionaries connect 戞 to 戛. The latter also has older senses of a rule or norm and of treading, alongside a weapon, striking, and a bird’s call.
Why preserve this exact form?
It keeps a source spelling available for exact transcription.
SAT is the University of Tokyo project that built a searchable digital text of the Taishō Buddhist canon. Its Unicode proposal covered character forms that earlier encodings could not represent; the record for 𬽎 preserves a source spelling for faithful transcription.
