Comment (by azaozz):

 This is a long shot as the "needs emoji replacement" detection was updated
 in WP 6.2 and seems most browsers/OS do not need to do that now.

 Wondering if this may have something to do with the JS that replaces
 emojis with images, and excludes nodes with the `wp-exclude-emoji` class
 name. The problem might be that when using the mutationObserver the class
 name check may miss a parent node with that class as it may not propagate
 far enough on the DOM tree.

 Shall I try adding a patch for `emoji.js` in core? Would be nice if it
 could be tested whether it would make any difference on the forums.
