That's a good point, often these things have to be seen in context.
I've just tried it out myself in a browser as a favicon + top-left logo.

Screenshots:
New icon:  https://i.imgur.com/8VvQwr8.png

The new logo looks good with the flatness, but also feels 'sharper' on the
eyes (as a shuriken would)
The colors work well against the header background.
