The package is quite large at 33MB (46MB on disk and ~90K files). The large size can occasionally cause package installation issues. The package is also only used in one test that is already covered by an E2E test. The E2E test does not require the package to be present for development as the test installs it within a generated project during execution. This also has the benefit of testing the icons package in a more real world use case; as well as allowing the test to serve as a guide for a user to add the package to their own application.
