    hmm...maybe it wasn't an accident. i found this lindon leader quote but have no idea whether it is authentic or not:

    "To avoid getting too technical here, suffice it to say I took the best characteristics of both and combined them into unique and proprietary letterforms that included both ligatures (connected letters) and a higher “x-height,” or increased size of the lower-case letters relative to the capital letters. I worked these features around until the arrow seemed quite natural in shape and location."
