I feel like Adobe has a similar problem but handle it much better.

And similarly, Jetbrains. Having the product intitials in the icon is incredibly helpful.

Jetbrains products' icons are OK, but there's clearly a gradual Adobification going on.

Their designers recently declared that colored icons were distracting (?) and are currently moving most of the them to gray. Quite confusing when gray usually means disabled.

Oh, let's not confuse the product icons with the in-app icons. I can't believe they're taking color away. It's just stupid.
