The lower-case mu (as "micro sign") appeared at 0xB5 in the 8-bit ISO-8859-1 encoding, from which Unicode and many other encodings inherited it.

Unicode aims at encoding graphemes, not individual "meanings" ("semantics") of graphemes, and not glyphs.It is a matter of case-by-case judgement whether such characters should receive separate encoding when used in technical contexts, e.g. Greek letters used as mathematical symbols: thus, the choice to have a "micro-sign" µ separate from Greek μ, but not a "Mega sign" separate from Latin M ...
