To be fair, there's swastikas hidden in all sorts of innocuous places. It's such a basic shape (which is why it was historically popular) that it's hard to avoid accidentally incorporating one somewhere.

Anything with rotational symmetry runs a high risk of somehow incorporating one.

Well, anything featuring right angles, four lobes, and rotational symmetry. Drop any one of those and the accidental swastika risk drops tremendously.

Love it. We paint red swastikas all over for Diwali.

You’d expect a million dollar design company would put a little extra effort to avoid it.
