Shouldn't biáng (𰻞, U+30EDE) have a two-dot 辶 radical for JP? #451

Biáng (𰻞, U+30EDE) is technically a hyōgaiji kanji, therefore the 辶 radical should be two dots, not one.

I understand the multi-locale version of biáng was created to demonstrate what the special character would look like under different locales, and probably for fun, but it seems like this JP glyph for biáng is an exception to the hyōgaiji rule that normally dictates kyūjitai forms (basically traditional orthography). By right, the JP glyph should have two dots for the 辶 radical, and only the KR glyph has this.

Unless this character is given a special exception (there is a Japanese product packaging that shows biáng with one dot), should the JP glyph be removed and the KR glyph be used for JP and KR?

Also applies to Serif.

I see both versions here in Japan and either way this isn't really worth an issue.

That's okay. Anyway it's only one glyph so it will not matter much when it comes to reducing unnecessary CIDs.
