Helsig calls this incredibly common radical the TASKMASTER, because it usually shows up in kanji about learning or organized procedures.
That makes sense, but I prefer to call him the DIRECTOR, as you can easily picture his imperious figure sitting on this cliche Hollywood director's chair with the crossed legs:
. . .the tallness of the chair allows him to oversee his underlings' every move, and hector them appropriately.
LOOKALIKES:
Lack (欠)is spreading its legs because it LACKS good manners,but the director's chair, by definition, has crossed legs.
