As I understand it, the shape you get if a cartoonist wants to depict a
drop of water: pointy top smoothly widening to rounded belly shape, and
in my mind, the top is not straight but bends off to the side the
chanter's going to go. Again, like the cartoon drop of water.
If I'm wrong, someone please correct me.
More mathematical descriptions are certainly available, and will be
comprehensible to some....

I've seen the 'tear-drop' description used several times in this discussion. I
think I know what it means but that remains my guess only.. For many others
reading this discussion (if they are) it must be a fairly puzzling and
unsatisfactory description.
What exactly are we talking about here?
