For a new player, a single medal is a little short of
a message. And, who really reads the manual?
So an easy-to-understand icon is desired. An icon
that says "press this and you get easy levels".

Once you solved both modes as well as before solving any one
of them, you have no idea if a level supports easy-mode or not.
You can ask the level-inspector, but you don't see it as an
overview.

It's just for testing, to see how the mode-switch
acts graphically.
