Thanks, but please tell more.  What was the surrounding text in this
case, and why did you think what Emacs does was not correct in that
situation?

The U+200C character has several behaviors defined by the Unicode
Standard, and those behaviors depend on the characters surrounding
U+200C, so it is important to know the exact details of the case you
are talking about.
