This is the typical chicken-egg problem: LO's SVG rasterizer / icons
broken => default to PNG. Everybody uses PNG (and some complain about
blocky icons in HiDPI) => nobody fixes the LO's SVG rasterizer / icons.
Some more background info is in bug 133877 comment 11.

And OTOH people can manually select an SVG icon set, so the pressure to
fix this isn't really high.

While the SVG icons easily look better when scaled, the PNG icons
definitely look better in 100% / non-scaled in Linux.

And it also doesn't help that gtk3 always scales the rasterized icons,
so you get the worse 100% SVG icons scaled to HiDPI.
