For one logo, they might be expecting nudity but instead got profanity; they may be more offended by the latter than the former. |

By "reasoning parameter", I mean specific material the template is warning the reader about such as violence, nudity, profanity, etc. Some articles (i.e. Fat Dog Productions, Malibu Video,) have this template and their logos are seemingly not that obscene or not at all whatsoever, confusing the reader on what makes them offensive. I think this template deserves this parameter so that readers can be warned about particular subject matter, like how there's a notice for the loudness of a logo. For one logo, they might be expecting nudity but instead got profanity; they may be more offended by the latter than the former. |
