What 𗝘 means
Because Unicode's label follows the code point, not the gloss.
The Unicode name is Tangut Ideograph-17758. Its encoding record maps 𗝘 to LFW2008-4397 in Li Fanwen's Tangut-Chinese Dictionary; that index helps locate the entry, not its reading.

1Why does 𗝘 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.
