So the situation in which this makes sense is when you're using Gnome.
Not even that, because Gnome probably already has a shortcut for the emoji picker.
Yes, but that didn't work in Firefox before this change. The whole point of this change is to make that work in Firefox as well. (Likewise, it still doesn't work in Chrome, Chrome-based browsers, and Electron apps.)
How could Firefox or Chrome block a system shortcut??
