Emojis (and before those, emoticons) help fill in the tonal gaps created by lack of body language and voice contexts, so yes that makes sense.

This is exactly the reason I love sticker packs in Signal so much, they add an extra option for tone/body language while also reinforced shared favorite media with friends/family. Binge a TV show with your partner? Make a sticker pack out of it and now you get ti show how you feel and reinforce the shared experience.
