Not sure if we understand each other here?

I mean, the plan now is: to have the founders vote and decide the
final logo; then have it refined* and handed out to the association
and be used.  Not to ask the top three preferred to refine again and
put these up to community comments again and then only vote. That's
why your input on proposals is important now, today.

* refined here means indeed: removal of any non-matching element,
proposing potential colour schemes or tracks to improve the logo in
the further term for the artwork (and/or the original author) to use
or develop from.
