Someone pls explain?
i believe it's just pointing out the misalignment of the graphic. people may be under the impression that something like a cursor has mathematically precise proportions, but it does not.
And it’s by design. Because if it was absolutely precise the edge wouldn’t have been straight

yeah it has kind of an optical balance to it. i don't mind that it's not mathematically perfect because it appears proportional. optics are all that matters, especially in pixel art.
(edit: i guess 'pixel art' isn't correct anymore because it's a vector graphic, but it used to be pixels!)
