What?

But?!

You're _literally_ half a century late!

Every person on Earth has a supercomputer, in their pocket, that is able to 
solve this problem!  You make the symbol once, and copy-and-paste it 
wherever you need it!

I mean, there is absolutely, positively no work lost, using electronic 
formats, with symbols as complicated, as baroque, as you can dream of.

Printers are 100% vector to raster, thanks again to computers.  No time lost 
there.

If you need to take the shortcut just when diagramming something by hand, 
alright, but leaving that in?  Deceptive AND lazy, my god... :-(
