Review Comments
The bottom component of U+2C7CF 𬟏 is obviously a turtle, so unification seems justified. Perhaps UCV #160 can be extended to include the bottom component of U+2C7CF 𬟏.
On the other hand, UK-20437 is used in the evidence provided as an alternate way of writing the character 鱉 'softshell turtle' in the specific word 紫鱉, an ancient name for a type of plant. In this case it is obvious that the character is composed of a grass radical above a turtle.
Thus UK-20437 and U+2C7CF are non-cognate, and have significantly different glyph forms, and so cannot be unified.
