That discussion is not about using the recently discovered image of
historical badges. Obviously they have removed it from their website. It
is very low resolution, indeed, the details of the badges are almost
unrecognizable. But would the section put too much emphasis on what are,
in fact, trivial details, simply because the question exercises us?
