Well, "Pattern" just sort of became a standard way of identifying a patterned
part. "Logo" I think should refer more to a specific type of pattern.
Necessary? I don't know. But I seem to be blindly following the convention.

In a perfect world....
I would love it if that were the case. Only near-perfect parts get into an
update. But in a way, just about every part needs some work here or there,
especially some of the really complex ones. And it is hard to know where to
set the standard of near-perfection. So the needs work tag serves as an
admission of known imperfection. Call it a necessary evil.
