a) take a look at a mouse sometime. They don't look like The Mouse
much. That hyper-rounded style was purely a graphic artist's trick to
make Mickey easy to draw in a production environment.
b) Making the Squeak logo look even faintly close to The Mouse could
have got us into a Lot Of Trouble. I feel sure you haven't missed how
astonishingly grabby and litigious US corporations have become.
c) Squeaky Da Mouse is actually Coyote _pretending_ to be a mouse for
the purposes of, well, Coyote. Normally Coyote helps people but he can
turn nasty so don't piss him off!
