Cómo se construye 🇬🇧

🇬🇧 no es una imagen guardada en Unicode. Son dos letras indicadoras regionales, G y B, que juntas forman GB, el código ISO 3166-1 alfa-2 de Reino Unido.

Cada dispositivo decide si tiene un dibujo para GB. Si no lo tiene, verás las letras G B en lugar de una bandera. Windows es el caso más conocido: su fuente Segoe UI Emoji no incluye ninguna bandera de país.
