Just occurred to me --- I feel incredibly slow ---
The square on the home button symbolizes an app icon.
The curves are the same. And when iPhone first came around, it was known as "the revolutionary new phone with a bunch of candy-coloured little rounded squares you can tap on". It's so simple.
Brilliant little Apple Detail.
Sorry if this was obvious to people!
