This raises a valid point. Why is the default bone shape an elliptic cylinder with two symmetrical nodules at each end. Even as a kid (in the 1980s) I noticed this was weird, since no bone we take meat off of or have in our body looks like that.

This is a much cooler (and much more 3D) bone than the two nodules at each end flat bone.
I get that they flattened it to make it cheaper to stamp, but still. I’m counting at least three peaks at the top.
