Please, do not mix the themes here.
First of all, I never said "no" to customization. The customization is an
important part of the LibreOffice UX and for this reason there have been the
styles of icons, FF themes, NotebookBar, etc. What I am questioning here is the
need to ignore having a consistent visual identity through operating
systems/desktop environments via visual elements such as application icons.

Second, some members of the GNOME community did not say that "customization is
a cancer", they support customization, but not if there is no standardized way
to do it, which otherwise causes more issues than benefits, which It shows that
you did not understand the meaning of the letter.
