Stippling is probably also better for usability reasons. A stippled
surface tends to afford dragging. An affordance is something that,
although it may not be functionally necessary, indicates how an object
should be used. For example, the flat metal plates on some doors meant
to be pushed are primary placed there because they afford pushing, and
hence immediately cue the user that the door is meant to be pushed.
