I think we could optimize the emoji used,
there are some sets of emoji that are sort of similar, like multilpe different sorts of arrows,
one hump and two hump camels, several different buildings, etc, etc.
Also lots of clocks, it is probably easier to remember "clock" than 6:30

I've been thinking about actually experimentally testing this with a psychological experiment where people rember hashes encoded as hex, base64, and emoji, and detect how well they detect partial collisions by eye.
