The yin-yang symbol is an incredible symbol!
With a depth that few will ever know, so much so, that you can meditate on the symbol and find deeper meaning.

If the yin-yang symbol is 10, on the 1-10 scale.
The current steemit logo is about a 2 in comparison.

interprets very nicely the meeting of two peoples opinions and ideas...

I agree with you, but this is a view only from being inside of steemit. You know what steemit is, and so you view the symbol, and see meaning through that filter set.

It says nothing about steemit from an outsiders point of view.
