GNOME devs are only paid to care about GNOME. It's been this way since 2014 when they started breaking Gtk3 applications by removing gsettings the community used but they did not.

I can even see why they want that change, but even just keeping the old icons as compat would have been good enough, I just miss the issue why on doesn't do that directly after the issue is pointed out.

  It's been 10 years and probably a hundred closed/wontfix issues on the GNOME trackers (this is latest: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/-/issues/5872 https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/-/issues/5872) and the File->Open dialog in Gtk3 and Gtk4 applications still give an error message when you paste a file path into it. GNOME business use cases don't get people using keyboard input so they don't care. In this case GNOME business use cases don't use KDE applications so they won't care.

    I must confess we have a lot old bug reports around in the KDE project, too, therefore I can see the point that they might no set the priorities on such things. In the most cases in KDE or Kate it will only happen if you trigger the interest of a dev (if it is no fatal bug) or you can provide some patch.
