I like the name Heel View…can't be confused with the rules of other Front View symbols then…

So we have Front View, Top View and Heel View…

It's my personal opinion that there should be 4 palm facings in each plane and I understand that the fourth for most symbols looks like the other one and was removed when simplifying the symbols some years back.  If someday we do add a fourth one we should make it look a little different from the other one so we can tell them apart.  But I haven't a clue what in what way it would be different.

It should be noted that there are possibilities that people will write the between rotations of the heel of hand as either facings they are between, since you are looking to make searching for writings of the same sign with different symbols. ;-)
