What 𰰜 means
To preserve the exact printed character in a searchable digital edition.
When the SAT project published its first digital text in 2008, many printed Han characters could not be displayed because they lacked computer encodings. Researchers sometimes replaced such forms with component-built substitutes or annotated black boxes. The source record for 𰰜 links it to the canon, allowing its exact form to be displayed and searched as a character.

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.
