David decided: Banned kind-label symbols, kept their colors for text labels
David rejected using Carmack-style symbols as kind labels but kept the associated color palette for text-based kind names.
David pushed back on the symbol-as-label design that appeared in the first implementation pass.
i like the current colours you use for the different types like the exclamation mark, hashtag etc those colors are nice but i dont think we should be using those symbols
He then directed the agent to launch dedicated frontend design agents to rework the kind labels with care. The retained decision: kind colors survive (applied to the text/verbs), but the glyphs are dropped entirely in favor of plain English kind words.
