Comment (by jameskoster):

 > It hasn't yet in the 9 years that it's been in use in the customizer, so
 I don't think this is a concern.

 I disagree. It's recognisable as a browser / tab, but visually it looks
 very outdated. None of the tabs in the three major browsers look like the
 current preview. Others (e.g. Arc) have gone in a different direction
 entirely.

 The help text / description explain that the icon will appear in browser
 tabs, which seems adequate for a settings page. Previews capturing the
 full range of site icon usage can appear in documentation.


 > It's more clicks to complete tasks.

 Which tasks? Replacing is single-click, as is removing.
