If the star in the bottom corner was a Star of David instead of a pentagram and you said the exact same thing what do you think the response should be?

The same thing?

If you want mass appeal you must appeal to the masses. Using loaded symbology is a good way to torch your hard work.

Clearly, this phone is not intended for mass appeal, so I don't think this is an issue :)
