Emojis freeze Outlook for Mac when replying to email with an emoji in it

Anytime, for several months now, I hit reply to an email that has an emoji within it, Outlook for Mac completely freezes up for a long time. I've created multiple support sessions within Outlook trying to resolve this. They don't understand the issue. Anyone here have any insight? I am on a 2019 iMac running Ventura 13.0. Outlook version is 16.66.1 (22101101). This is a business PC with an Exchange email account on it.

    Yup, same issue, for about a year now. This is ridiculous. Come on MS, surely your trillions can solve a simple problem like this!
