That's exactly how I view those two units (and countless of the other doppelganger incidents a well). More or less the same icon, so more or less the same unit. It's easy enough to separate the units (for play purposes) by simply double-clicking on them, so I don't understand why'd you'd want very distinguishable icons for units that were basically the same?!?

The more I think about it, the more I think I would really dislike it if the icons for vastly similar units were vastly different. Maybe JK+KO intended it to be like that, and if so, many to them for having the icons the same IMO. Always suspected those two know a thing or two about making a good strategy game
