I realize W3C is the decider of industry standards at the moment, but I think
WPD should feel timeless and unbias. The origins of front-end development have
little to do with our Stewards. I would rather have icons that actually match
the site well. We should stay away from the symbolic meanings behind said logos
and make icons that have character due to the Docs itself, and not a Steward.
