So I was not ever confused with these 2 parts until just now. Maybe it's
lack of sleep or the blonde hair... who knows.

I understand the fins literally go up on one and down on the other... but if
you turn it upside down then you have it turned the other way and then it becomes
the other part,,,

I think you need more sleep, the central stud determines what's up or down.

If both are pointing with the fins up one would be balancing on a stud whilst
the other would be flat to the surface with a stud in the centre of the fins

But what is the reason the first is a modified round brick and the other a rock?
Only the direction of the fins is switched and that transforms a round brick
into a rock!

Where's the logic in that.... ' ?

Not true.  The second is clearly a crystallic form and it’s not regular: the
protrusions are 3 sizes.

Logic? In the catalogue? Are yu new here?

Oh, maybe because the mold was used exclusively as a 'chi' crystal for
3 years?
