IMHO nostr has likes ("+") dislikes ("-") and emoji reactions. Emoji reactions should not be counted as likes or dislikes. Some clients/people always use emojis and never "+", others always use "+" and never emojis, and some clients/people can do either one. This is not ideal but it is what we have.
I wouldn't consider a post somebody emoji-reacts to as a post that they like. Gossip client, for example, has 2 separate reaction counts: likes + reactions.
But also, I think 1984 reports don't also need emoji reactions, and although the additional emoji reaction isn't wrong, it's probably a bad idea given what you have poitned out.
