Pixels could be ambiguous now. Usually, Swing deals with user's space. That is 16×16 icon should actually be 32×32 if the scale factor of the current display is 200%.

Yes, this issue is somewhat irrelevant because the method returns multi-resolution icon. However, the terminology used must be unambiguous and clear; for consistency with other Swing API, it should be in terms of user's space coordinates, *virtual pixels*.
