Nowhere did I suggest that the "Short name without extension" example should be removed, only that the full pathname example should be updated to use /usr/share/icon/hicolor over /usr/share/pixmaps.
The point is that it makes no sense whatsoever to reference /usr/share/icons with an absolute path! The whole point of /usr/share/icons is to allow themable icons with potentially multiple sizes, NOT one hardcoded icon. Using an absolute path does the latter and does defeats the purpose of using /usr/share/icons.
