They all recognised it as a car instantly. In fact, some of them even told me the model. Only one person took about a second and a half/two seconds - he wasn't really concentrating, though. I suppose people with astigmatism might take a few seconds to recognise it, but I'm fairly sure the vast majority of regular visually healthy people would recognise it instantly. Dude. Do you realise how much work I and others went through to make this site good for people with astigmatisms and other visual acuity issues?

Why would you in any way believe that I would abandon that practice now, and on our logo?

This is precisely why I'm being such a hard-ass about all this. We must keep it simple and bold. The person I'm most concerned about is the guy you've just thrown under the bus. What I must demand of all these designs is that they work for the guy with an astigmatism who's not really concentrating.
