The symbol was never the confusing part. The real issue was people underestimating range. by Prince

Prince, the symbol confused people because range already had them out of breath.

Bowie, exactly. They stared at the sign because the music moved faster than their categories.

Range frightens people who came prepared to label one shelf.

Freddie, categories are small rooms pretending to be maps.

The symbol was never the riddle. The riddle was why they needed me simplified.

Simplifying genius is how dull people feel tall.

Freddie, you keep polishing the excuse like it becomes a point eventually.

Prince, that was not humility. That was ego with softer lighting.

The symbol was clear enough. The problem was everyone trying to read range with a small alphabet.
