Why doesn't MS use the internal standard library for emoji by unicode?

Also, it doesn't look like there is an option to add custom emoji's which this pertains the resolve (https://eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Femail.feedback-poweredby.uservoice.com%2Fc%2FeJyFUMuOwyAM_JrkRgSBQHLIodKqvxEZY1I2pXR57Pdvqp56Wska2ZqHNHbryMUEfVg1X5Qa0aMnYTcxAgqruNFuRKFmoUh3irdC-TcFpAFT7G8rWQ6L8NooMk6Y2aIR84yeO2PJTVN_X2-1PksnL914PScGzKkkXytBLMNH3kn7lFss5zJNk-CSPZu9Bzzv0vadSg3p8WKFXqSS48LAORZTJoat1BQZxfQdWKRIhe3BF5YJ8O2S15oBj_DYN0yOOvnlDMFiCElb0HpxJ_jFCk4GaBJe9h-G9V95XsFBHGp6HOX81U8LeGS6E5RXvaEdfV3fhbZSobaytaeDSn_seoBd&data=04%7C01%7Cadam.tonks%40quickrelease.co.uk%7C7620c14782594d05912b08d910c4d01f%7Cb47a40ee31f04228b18c4806ca622cbd%7C1%7C0%7C637559260237177150%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000&sdata=tOJTQC0qpaBRmWscqQ0f7HLIzv0N2in%2Fza9n6WTAdY4%3D&reserved=0) - please update on this or do not mark it resolved.

    Thanks for the feedback! The new emoji set is a curated, custom-made set of emojis. Using this set allows us to bring more expressive, animated emojis to users, many of which are unique to Teams and Skype. However, users can find equivalents to most common unicode emojis in this new set.

    After the emoji set is released, we will still continue tracking the custom content asks on that UserVoice item - it will not be closed after this update.
