What are you talking about?
The migrated versus is the same as the original version.
That is exactly how it should be.
This has nothing at all to do with migration, discourse or translating encoding.
Migrating a post where the encoding has already been replaced in the original DB as "a question replacement char" will keep the same "question replacement char" .
Indeed, are you working too hard?
These example posts you just posted seem "perfect" to me. The migration is just like the original. The original has already replaced unknown encoding (you do not know if the original encoding was unicode or not, that information is gone from existence in the original post and has been replaced with the "wft" encoding symbol.
