I'm sure it has to do with what you're used to looking at. I forget
which one is which (heck, I was forgetting which was which even when I
was taking a logic class). However, & for "and" has a precedent in
natural language. | for "or" is a bit out there, but at least it looks
significantly different than &, which cannot be said about ^/v.
