Makes sense.
Elon undoubtedly has folders full of cool images he's saved, so while he was still focused on the "X" idea, he rummaged around and found that one and thought, "Yeah! This is gonna be sick dude!"
Thus are decisions made by the world's richest teenage edgelord.
It's well known that X is the edgiest letter.
H has just as many edges 🤔🤔🤔
Yeah, but they’re not razor edges like X!
E has more
I count 12, same as X and H, W has 13 tho
Truly the edgiest display server
