Are These Symbols? Are They A Code? A Message?

We've had this plastic Playtex stool from Target for a few years. I'm sure there are hundreds of thousands of them out there.

Every time I see the bottom of the stool I wonder if it's a coded message. I'm finally making a serious attempt to figure it out.

I don't see any reason for the bottom side of these rubber grips to be anything but totally uniform. Even if it was part of the production process, I can't wrap my head around it.

But looking at it, it looks like writing in an alien language. There are repeated symbols.

Can anyone decipher this or explain why it's made like this?
