What 𱿺 means
Its source record names a collection, not a reading. The Unicode record for U31FFA lists source SAT-05038, from the SAT Daizōkyō Text Database. SAT is a searchable digital edition of the Taishō Buddhist canon, a collection of Buddhist scriptures in Chinese. The source tag tells you which collection supplied the character; you need the original passage to understand its meaning there.
What does the Unicode date actually date?
It dates the encoding, not the character's first appearance. U31FFA entered the standard in Unicode 15.0 (2022), within Extension H, a collection of rare and historical ideographs from multiple sources. That release date marks when the code point was standardized, not when this form first appeared in writing.

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.
