I am one who has consistently misused it, but am going to do better in the future. As I use 1c, should it be labeled Com or something else or left unlabeled?1a Correct but often misused as an all encompasing power common as well as Earth Ground.
See section 1 & 111 for the comments on incorrect usage.

1c would have a A or D label, often inside the triangle.Analog ground or digital ground?
You are correct on both counts. That's one of the reasons I posted the question.I found it odd that the Art Of Electronics, often used by those as a learning tool, (mis)uses the symbol all the way through the book.
Also I do not recall ever seeing a list of symbols and their usage in schematic drawings etc in the book.
