Thinking this through for a million years would mean that there is an evolutionary pressure to fake smiles. At some point humans and smileys will become inseparable.
I would argue that culture means that these evolutionary pressures don't have the force they'd have in a machine AI dominated world in which human culture is subordinate to algorithms and capitalist ownership of things. My version was for a more dystopic future vision.

There already is an evolutionary pressure to fake smiles. People treat you like absolute shit if you don't fake smile in the appropriate situation.
