I think it's fine the way it is, it is after all the Lock Icon for VFOB
AND it's easy to see that the VFO's are tuning together. 

However I don't think VFOB should be locked in Linked mode, Just in
Diversity mode

Don‘t complain. Nobody will understand. Or care. And certainly don‘t try
to fix the situation yourself. It‘s dangerous. Leave it to a highly
untrained, unqualified, expendable professional.
