1. “Misprint” should be carefully used.
That means the error originated from reasons such as printing machine malfunction, insufficient printing technology, and poor paper quality.
However, for ancient Chinese books, all characters are handwritten, engraved, and printed, and there are very few printing quality issues with the literature used as evidences, and there are no errors could be named as “misprint”.
2. "The rule of Liding" exceeds our authority.
Up to now, the study of ancient Chinese characters has been passed down for over 2000 years, and there has not yet been a unified set of Liding rules, making it impossible for us amateurs to provide professional advice.
Our responsibility is to ensure that the glyph of Kai style characters is stable, reliable, and can be encoded, and should not involve professional work in neighboring fields.
The conclusion on IRG #58 is “Pending for more evidence”, since new evidences has been provided, there is no need to raise any new issues.
Moreover, this character is used as frequently as 900 times in my database, quite stable to be encoded.
1. It's not the proper way to add new UCV
If we want add a set of new UCV, the font should be commonly used, directly related, and with minimal variation. It's feasible to add ⿱鳥囚~⿱鳥𠔿~⿱鳥𠔽 as a new UCV. The right part ⿱鳥囚 is already totally different with ⿳自㓁𠔽, it does not comply with our previous principle of adding new combinations.
2. Representative variant characters should be independently encoded as unification targets
Other similar glyphs of ⿱鳥囚 are also collected during the project process. We chose one of them as the representative form and demonstrated its difference from 𣝼.
The encoding work is to find out valuable glyphs, rather than eliminate all variants. We should ensure the scale of unification to prevent excessive cultural loss.
3. This is a issure about Erroneous Transformation rather than Liding Unification Rule.
This character is generated during version transfer, not Liding from Small Seal Script directly. This is a question about variant characters, which has nothing to do with the rules of Liding.
4. IRGN2612 is not yet a rule that has been discussed and approved.
All the features of this character comply with the relevant regulations of PNP2.1, while IRGN2612 hasn't entered the discussion agenda, we don't need to take into account the imagination that has not yet become a reality.
At first I had a similar suspicion, but it didn't appear in the corresponding position in the first column with 㝅/𣪒/穀, so it wouldn't be the variant of 04744.
𪁾 is another character.
The pronunciation of ⿰关鳥 is zhi4, which is totally different with 𪁾.

Meanwhile, ⿹气二 is still quite stable to be encoded.
Agree with comment #13594, component 疒 was usually transfered into ⿱亠⿰亻*, such as U+2015C 𠅜 (⿱亠例)~U+2A724𪜤(⿱亠⿰亻隹）. This phenomenon also exists in the use of '彦', such as U+30A61𰩡(⿱立仁）.
Reply to Andrew’s comment #13218 & #14083.
Unlike ordinary accidental errors, regardless of whether the cause of the error is an incorrect combination or a clerical error, it does not affect the inclusion and encoding of such characters, as they were once considered correct characters and have been circulating in literature. Even if we or the ancients already know that they are incorrect characters, they still have academic research or proofreading significance, and have textual research value, so they should be retained.
These viewpoints come from my discussion with editorial experts from Zhonghua Book Company(中華書局).
