[ obelisk-app/obelisk-menhir ] An app icon the right size for the Dock
The macOS icon was full bleed — artwork edge to edge on a 1024 canvas.
macOS does not add the margin itself: it expects the icon to be drawn on
Apple's grid, a rounded square filling 824 of those 1024 pixels. Given a full
bleed image it renders it at full size, which is why Menhir sat visibly
larger than every other app in the Dock.
icon.icns is now drawn on that grid, at every size macOS asks for, 1x and 2x.
The other platforms keep full bleed, which is what they expect.
