--- Comment #4 from Pedro <vermelhusco1904 at gmail.com> ---
The process to design the new icons occurred through months and months.
It was iterative and open to feedback from the community through the entire
process. Where was the bug opener through this entire process to raise his
concerns?
Should the new icons be discarded when someone clearly not involved comes to
spread hate about the icons?
Should we discarded the work and feedback from the tens of people that helped
the designer who spent hundreds of hours doing the work? IMO, no. 

The person should get used to them. I fundamentally disagree that icons should
convey usage. If that is the case what usage does Adobe Acrobat icon or
Photoshop icon convey? Or GIMP icon? Or Spotify icon? Or Microsoft Office
icons?
You have hundreds of examples of applications where icons don't convey usage.
Even if we go by the flawed reasoning of the bug opener, the old icons also
didn't properly convey usage anyway.
