We know the person receiving the award probably isn't smart enough to figure out why it's pyramid shaped.
Like how they decided they'd hold it by gripping the top of the pyramid, not the base plate like a usual sane person.
I bet if you asked them to hand you a drink, they'd hold it from the top with two fingers dipped into the fluid. Then proceed to be confused as to why you don't want to drink it anymore.
To be fair, being a mesh design, I would want to pick it up by the pyramid, too.
Fair enough, but to hold it in a position good for displaying... The base plate makes a lot more sense.
