I'm still trying to find out the point of labeling the light switches in
airplanes. I can see the point of doing it if the button is obvious to
the touch, but on some planes they use membrane switches that aren't
obvious to the touch. I know the ADA probably requires them to label
light switches, but the logic of doing so escapes me.
