Yes but the people you're responding to ARE looking for squares, no matter if the missing or responsible shape is a triangle.

That's the obvious nature of what is being done here-- trying to fix the perceptual gap here that's in no small bit responsible for crime statistics being skewed so heavily toward squares--, and why they're so mad. They don't want to believe there's anything to it other than squares commit the most crimes, and they refuse to address any reasons there might be for it. They just want to see a square match the description and get what's coming to them. No more thought to make things human, just shapes and statistics.
