The point of such things is to be comprehensive, that is to include the Good, the Bad, and the Ugly along with all the others.

35 years ago in Colombia, I flew on a national carrier (Uribe?) that had the cartoon crow characters Heckle and Jeckle painted on their planes. Even my young, reckless student mind questioned the wisdom of what I was undertaking when I climbed aboard. But if they are still around and have a symbol, they too should be included, especially since I did survive to tell of it.

(Why is CX so terrible? I have no experience of them, but have been tempted by their come-ons to fly to and around Asia for $999 or whatever it these days.)
