This character is a Otro símbolo and is commonly used, that is, in no specific script.
The glyph is not a composition. It has no designated width in East Asian texts. In bidirectional text it acts as Other Neutral. When changing direction it is not mirrored. The word that U+21A8 forms with similar adjacent characters prevents a line break inside it.
The CLDR project calls this character “flecha arriba abajo con base” for use in screen reading software. It assigns these additional labels, e.g. for search in emoji pickers: abajo, arriba, base, flecha.
