    U+9686 has an extra stroke in the right-hand component. In IDS terms,
    U+28E93 would be something like ⿰阜⿱夂生 and U+9686 is ⿰阜⿳
    夂一生.

    Of course, that doesn't necessarily mean that they're not z-variants
    of each other. Unfortunately, the information on U+28E93 doesn't
    really help us much, since the character is derived from CNS 11643
    plane 15 and from the North Korean standard KPS 10721-2000. The
    former could easily have been made a compatibility ideograph in the
    ordinary course of events. I'm assuming that the North Koreans
    objected and wanted the two treated as distinct ideographs, but I
    can't be sure.

    In any event, we don't have sufficient information available to
    precisely define the nature of the difference between the two
    characters.
