What 嵟 means
嵟 is an older variant of 崔 meaning “high” or “lofty.”
An entry in the Shuowen Jiezi, an early Chinese dictionary, glosses 嵟 as “high.” It treats 屵 as its filing component (the radical) and 隹 as the sound component, which hints at pronunciation.
It reads as a historical or dictionary-preserved form.

1Why does 嵟 show as a box on some devices?
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.
