Hello,
sharp 1px or 2px lines cause icon to look sharp (obviously). This does not
normally lead to a pleasant GUI experience unless we consider a GUI from
the 90s.

According the the overall style chosen it might be a good idea to add a a
second line next to the 1px (2px) line of a much lower (or higher)
saturation. More sophisticated options exists too. Some guidance here:

cheers
