Hold on, you've missed the point of my discussion.
I read your post carefully last night.
Petrie knew well that the arm glyph signified the cubit measurement system, as do I.
But he also identified what you are referring to as platform as the cubit. That's the part I posted from Legon, and it's that glyph that is in Sneferu's Horus name...
Aa11/12
As oposed to "official cubit" D42, that sign may signify simply measurement rule.
Are you saying this can't be correct?
Also, I can't find an example of this Sneferu two ladies name with D36. Do you have a ref?
Back to you.
Dave Light.
Here's more of Sneferu's names:
