<p>Is there a usage for   as "rèn" ? I cannot find examples with this pronunciation.
I understand the usages as yáng, jiāng, &amp; qiāng, as explained by  dROOOze and others in <a href="https://chinese.stackexchange.com/questions/1612/what-is-the-top-part-of-%E5%A7%9C-and-why-does-it-differ/30221#30221">what-is-the-top-part-of-姜...</a>. However, the unicode pronunciation for  U+2634C is given as rèn, and WIKIPEDIA includes rèn without examples <a href="https://en.m.wiktionary.org/wiki/%F0%A6%8D%8C" rel="nofollow noreferrer"> Etymology 2</a>)
re: [⺷ U+2EB7 /  U+2634C]</p>

<p>[added] I found one reference / usage <a href="https://ctext.org/wiki.pl?if=en&amp;chapter=687118&amp;searchu=%F0%A6%8D%8C&amp;remap=gb" rel="nofollow noreferrer">here</a>, "补字如甚切音姙..."  but I have no skill to read it and understand if it is using  or discussing it as 'suspicious'.

No.

「」 has no usage examples as the reading **rèn** ([Bopomofo](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bopomofo): **ㄖㄣˋ**). Note that many ancient dictionaries make definitions up out of thin air, which is why quotes from character usage in literature is so important.

So it might come from 「」 with a horizontal line added to the bottom.
