Oh nice one Tracey, thank you!

I found it interesting that Tela did not suffer this, at first I thought maybe
it was a hint of a workaround. I realised that Tela has a built-in firefox
icon.

You showed me part of this I had not tested - It will prefer any icon from the
current theme, over any icon from the fallback (hicolor) theme, ie
PNG(this theme)  >  SVG(this theme)  >  PNG(fallback theme)  >  SVG(fallback
theme) 

Reading it again I can see that, once again, this matches the spec
https://specifications.freedesktop.org/icon-theme-spec/latest/#icon_lookup

More and more, I feel like this is actually a case of KDE (or is it KF or Qt? I
couldn't figure it out) being perfectly compliant with XDG's spec and the spec
prefers PNG over SVG. As in, intentional, so not really a bug... Though I'm not
sure it was actually the intended result, that SVG icons go un-used.

Thanks Nate!
PS sorry to bother you in both issues, I wasn't sure if you would actually get
the message from this resolved issue, since I imagine there's a lot of 'noise'
in those for you. I hope that wasn't too annoying.
