   The feature here is, "make NetBeans look better". When it comes to icons, 
having a consistent scheme is an essential part of "looking good". So adding 
one or two icons only, which will now look different next to the existing ones 
in the toolbar, actually makes NetBeans look worse. Thus the -1.
   
   To review, we also need to see screenshots before and after, at 100% and 
200% DPI scaling. Often you'll see issues at this point, that were not evident 
when you were just looking at the icons in the drawing software. This means 
recompiling, which takes a while... longer than the time it took to make two 
icons.
   
   Unrelated: I also recommend keeping the icons in a single file in the 
drawing software (in different "artboards" or whatever is the equivalent in 
Inkscape), so they can be viewed side-by-side while designing them. This also 
facilitates cut-and-paste of shapes between icons.
