If the VMs illustration was just roots, it wouldn't look so much like a pair of wings. If it has meaning, it's either mnemonic or heraldic.
Wings are wings, what can I say. In heraldry, conjoined wings are a vol or Flug. The pattern predates the VMs, but is very uncommon. For 46v to be a heraldic eagle, there are too many parts missing. (Head, feet, tail)
If the VMs wings are seen as being representative of an eagle or an angel, that is a matter of interpretation, and it helps to have some supporting evidence.
The VMs roots illustration also seems to have a bit of excess black coloration, if it is intended to represent a red eagle.
