Faced with such nonsensical words, let’s give a real-life example.

The three attached files are: 
     1. the evolution icon, optimized by upstream to 32×32, and
        converted to XPM format with 1 bit of transparency (as mandated
        by the Debian menu) 
     2. the original evolution icon, scaled at 96×96 pixels (the GNOME
        shell menu size) 
     3. the XPM icon as scaled by GNOME Shell (before we rip it of the
        Debian menu) to 96×96

I don’t think “antique” is an overstatement. And I do mean it in a
pejorative way.
