    By removing the symbols they were able to shave the case down 0.0003nm, making it the thinnest and lightest laptop ever.

      If they etched the symbol they could have reduced the weight of the laptop by 0.003g making it even better

        But if they omit the symbol entirely, they save 0.003 cents per unit, but they will continue to charge the same inflated retail price for it and all their cult members will cover for them by gushing about how sleek the “minimalist” design is.

      You know it’s a thunderbolt connection on a MacBook. They stopped using the USB symbol when they used the usb for thunderbolt and stopped using the mini display port.
