As usual your subject line is completely misleading.
The price for his icon set is US$28.

So less than 4000 people out 100 million have gone for this.

It's a handsome icon set. I'm sure there will be more at a lower price
point very soon. That designer has simply gotten a huge leg up over
everyone else and made a small pile of cash. Having a social media star
(Brownlee) give him a nod was certainly good luck too.

No it isn't. I said iPhonerSSSSS - plural.

You said: "Poor iPhoners, starved for freedom, pay designer $100,000 for
custom icons"

Restored snipped context above. {A}

Yet only a very few (4000) out of 100M paid $28 each.
2/1000ths of a percent (conservatively).

I didn't even comment on your "starved for freedom" nonsense.
