At that point not being a floppy disk would be confusing - when the Tango Icon Theme was used widely, it had some weird "arrow to a box" (i think it was supposed to be a hard disk) as the save symbol and despite using such programs for years it threw me off very often when trying to find and hit the save button in a toolbar. Actually it still does since some applications still use the icon set.
