Um... I thought the genius of the Ɏ was multifaceted....
1) It combines the Y (Your) and the A (Alternate) into one symbol in a simple yet interesting way (upside-down A part of the Y).
2) It departs from the childish, ugly, unprofessional Yac (like the animal Yak) imagery. ('Yah-Coin' not 'Yak-Coin')
3) It can be typed on your keyboard.
4) The way the line extends, it denotes what yacoin intends to be--money (ie the $ sign).
The only negative is the resemblance to the Chinese Yen symbol which actually might help it in widespread adoption?
Hate to sound like a discouraging naysayer, but I feel these 'improvements' don't make much sense.
