Anyone else troubled by the idea of three interlocking cogs? I mean, it's an icon meaning deadlock, right?



That would make sense if all three cogs were interlocked but they are not. The top two cogs are not close enough to each other.


Yes! It's something that makes me twitch each time I see it.

I know other people have discussed it, but my search engine skills are too weak to find anything at the moment.
