He became a mascot only after the 'new-logo' people started agitating for the sex-ball. Prior to that all the literature referred to him as a logo, when the word logo was used. (which wasn't often, but it was used) This is nothing more than an argument of appeasement and has been explained before in this forum, please quit insulting our intelligence. We all know that Beastie's place as the logo has been supplanted, and your side won, and your crude attempt to explain away Beastie is insulting. You won, be content with that.
