I know.  This morning, when there was little traffic, when the US folks were fast asleep, it just changed in a flick.  I had to do a double take.  Had no idea what those symbols were.  Then, I look at another screen I had open on my phone, which still had not been refreshed, and noticed in the corners of those old phantom software boxes that those symbols were right there!

Can't see why they would want to change them.  These symbols don't bear any resemblance, howsoever, to the products they represent.  It is counterintuitive that they would rather have these replace the well-established brands tax pros recognize - whose marketing idea is that?

Sounds like someone was asked to deliver on something and they came up with this merely for the sake of putting that on the year-end review as an accomplishment.
