The big advantage of monochromatic (+accent colours) when compared to flat (i.e. no contours) multicolour icons like ours: you won't run into the issue of icons blending into the backround like #1386 or #1325 for instance.
I hope I'll find time to give Numix under KDE a spin again in the coming weeks. I have a feeling there is a lot to be done.
What is obvious already when using KDE apps in GNOME is odd look of Numix action icons in KDE apps.

theme has even non-symbolic icons designed as if they were symbolic icons (simplified designs, monochromatic + accent colours). Many third-party themes like Papirus or Flat-Remix are following this trend.GNOME apps following the official HIG aren't using non-symbolic icons anyway, apps like Inkscape, GIMP, Krita, MyPaint,... ship their own symbolic icons.
This makes Numix icons stand out a lot. But do we want to discard our colourful icons (and redesign a huge amount of icons)?
