I am looking into this now, with a different set of system fonts, and it
is now clear what is going on.
🇩🇪 is actually not a single Unicode character, but 2 characters: 🇩 and
🇪. The reason they are rendered as emoji is likely font composition
rules.
Org mode priorities _must_ be a single char.
That said, it is indeed confusing when what _appears_ to be a single
char is not under the hood.
