I'm not sure how to make it better.  For starters, each Unicode
version adds gobs of new Emoji sequences, and the terminal emulators
need to keep up.  They don't always, or not as fast as we do.

People who want a good display of Emoji shouldn't do that on TTY
frames, that's all I can say.  With some TTYs, just disabling
auto-composition-mode is enough, or almost so.  Maybe we should have a
special minor mode that disables only compositions of Emoji.
