And shrinking makes the puzzle pieces - the cornerstone of the
original winning design - ambiguous. How ambiguous? For example in a
competitor's logo, a potato shape with the
same aforementioned puzzle pieces combine optically to create the
impression of a human brain:

Seriously. The classic logo clearly deliniated the puzzle pieces with
strong lines. The current appears to overemphasize the shadow in the
back of the sphere - making the "3-D" sphere look in fact flat and a
bit non-spherical /warped.
