As far as I am concerned, the Shard is insufficiently pointy. Surely it ought to taper to an exceedingly pointy tip?

Insufficiently Pointy maybe but, if I were a giant, I still wouldn’t want to accidentally step on it.
Also, Linda has decided that the television programme detailing the building of the Shard is, without doubt, the most interesting and exciting show of the year so far.
More exciting and interesting even than Ashley getting de-frocked.

It was going to be pointy and now it is not pointy.
It is like a slightly worn, frayed paintbrush that needs a lick.
yes, i too have been very disappointed by the lack of a glorious single apex.
