Certainly it is a horrible style, but as in everything, as in the humans symbolized in traffic lights, signs and toilet doors, the style is ultimately irrelevant, but rather the message it conveys, as in any artistic or graphic expression. BgTech naturally saves a lot of money on design with these simple and adaptable characters, but on the other hand it can democratize it by making figurative expression accessible to any user, as Watabou also does in one of his webapps, which creates random vignettes with stylized characters which can be free used by anyone to create comics, memes or any other proposit. https://watabou.itch.io/stick-figures
