> Come on, we're all adults here. We can take a few 90 degree angles.

I know that 90 degree angles on webpages are not more dangerous for children, parents, adults, or any other known subcategory of humans than for any other known subcategory of humans, but ... lots of people who use webpages and dev tools are actually children.

Didn't a lot of us get started as kids?

Have we collectively forgotten the olden days, when to print something, the solution was to ask the neighbor's next door kid? (who was probably you). Printers aren't any easier to use today than they were back then, but I guess that practice is over nowadays.

Fair enough, but some of the worst offenders of this aren't really targeted at children or something they'd be interested in. The new Github UI (which I adore, besides this particular issue) is a really bad offender for example. If you go to your profile page, there's not a single not-round border. The exception are the little squares showing activity, which makes it even worse because in the caption underneath they are rounded. What happened there?
