Thanks for your investigation!
As I can see, org-super-star-mode (also from integral-dw) has more
features than org-bullets and better support (last commit was in Jan
2023). So, I guess, we could update org-bullets to integral-dw's version
and also package org-super-star-mode, and then, probably, deprecate
org-bullets in favor of org-super-star-mode. What do you think of the
proposal?

Cheers!
