never understood why you ever changed it..

i love it that the pilon is back!!!

To be honest - I don't !

When I go into a folder which contains several VLC-associated files (especially in that windows-like icon view in the Finder), my first impression always is one of "warning" and confusion, because the pilon has kind of an alarming effect on me

That's because these pilons normally do represent some kind of border or limit. They're painted in those easily noticeable colours because they want your attention

or even better, with filetype tag:
