Very nice concept; a mvp

Just on first glance: 1. first diagram and others, ball jumps from beginning of BtoA arc to B without sliding along the arc.

2. second diagram box was no P(B|B). That is boxes are mislabeled.

3. strange, but arcs are sometimes at an angle. It appears to happen if they are scrolled to, but no if drawn on the initial screen.

4. while the R S on the next diagram does settle to a steady state, it starts with random Rs and Ss marching across at random rates.

Good Start!

It's an idea and a blog post. It is a good thing to try. For the U.S. market there are many legal and regulatory opportunities for you to grok before pushing forward this scheme. My first question of "will I get sued for placing these icons on some jobs" has a likely answer of "yes".

I always look at a language's error handling. First piece I see is 'There are three ways that a function can fail' followed by a six item list.

No one expects the exception.
