So I believe that these UI features were imitating paper-based forms. Those ovals or circles on Scantron sheets: you'd better not fill in more than one per line! And being named "radio buttons": yes, if you pressed "AM" then the "FM" button popped out. If you had six presets in a car--wait a minute, those were oblong... |
