The original purpose of this feature was to explicitely avoid
smoothscaling/Antialiasing to prevent that the double-sized pixmap-icon looks
blurry and without much contrast.
Anyways, if you assume that most icons are shipped as SVGs these days and if
you assume that scaled antialiased pixmap-icons look fine these days feel
free to remove that feature. I don't care too much about it :-)
