I haven't been able to find any kind of chart of the progress from ⺬to 礻 (like the Baidu images presumenothing posted for 直 and 真), but it sounds like ⺬isn't used in simplified characters, so the variation may just be something for me to worry about. XD What I found was this, on Wikiwand:

This radical takes different forms in different languages or characters.

When used as a left component, traditionally, only ⺬ was used in printing, while 礻 was overwhelmingly preferred in writing regular script. In the Kangxi Dictionary, ⺬ was chosen as the standard form.

In mainland China, after the adoption of simplified Chinese characters and xin zixing (new character forms), 礻, which used to be a handwriting form, became the standard xin zixing printing form [...] 礻 is also chosen as the standard form in the Taiwan standard and the Hong Kong standard of Traditional Chinese, though ⺬ [... is] also widely used in Traditional Chinese publications.

In Japan, 礻 was adopted as the standard form of in shinjitai, and the difference between 礻 and ⺬ is treated as the difference between the new and old forms [...]. However, this simplification applies only to jōyō kanji. [...] Both forms are acceptable when writing hyōgai kanji, but only the simplified form is recognized as the standard form in jōyō kanji.

The left component form is not simplified in Korean hanja [i.e. Korean uses ⺬]

This discussion has just reminded me that the colloquial name for this radical is 示字旁, so, well XD

[trobadora]

Oh, that's fascinating, thank you for sharing!

[trobadora]

Super fascinating, thank you!

Like I said elsewhere above, at my level of learning I probably shouldn't be worrying about things like that, but it's so helpful to talk about them and not just sit there stewing in my "????" on my own!

[sakana17]

I was so glad you asked about it! In my browser, nnozomi's post showed both characters and I was puzzling over it. The explanation is good to know.

[trobadora]

I'm glad it was useful to you too! I'm not confident enough to do actual practice sentences, but questions at least I can ask. *g*

[sakana17]

I'm not confident enough to attempt practice sentences, either, but I enjoy trying to find examples from shows (so far, just The Rebel, but I may need to branch out :D).

[trobadora]

Yeah, that's why I do SHL quotes sometimes, too. Much less nerve-wracking than trying to make a sentence of my own. *g*

[nnozomi]

This is really useful, thank you.

so the variation may just be something for me to worry about. XD
and me sometimes in Japanese! especially in original prewar texts, which are basically 繁体字. I know I read ⺬ and 礻 interchangeably as radicals (in context, out of context I might be pretty confused), but I'm not sure how I learned to do so.
