I researched this in psychology class. Apparently when promoting a vice (alcohol, cigs, gambling). it's beneficial to subliminally insert frightening or assymetrical images that subconsciously scare people. The thinking is that the vice will comfort them and thus encourage more usage. This can be seen mostly with adds for hard alcohol, but I don't think it is much of a stretch for it to be applicable here. Just my theory.
