It's not all roses over in Mac land either, look how terrible this icon is for "External Headphones"

Apple is slipping. (Probably an oversight because of Airpod-centric thinking.)

My guess is that icons distinguish between local devices and Airplay stuff.

"External headphones" should be a headphones icon, not a computer icon, is my complaint, to be explicit. It used to be correct in a previous version of macOS but regressed at some point.
