It's recommended (SHOULD) in the packaging guidelines [0], but since you have a
decent justification, it's fine for me.

I searched a bit further and it seems it's used for hi-resolution displays, but
the way it's used here is wrong (I think). hicolor-icon-theme apparently does
support @2, it's a bit vague in the spec [1] and I don't understand why they
"fixed" it in 0.16 by adding it to the index.theme file but didn't change the
build to create the directories... There also seems to be an oversight by
adding arbitrary scaling support in the spec, but only supporting @2 and not
@3...

GammaRay seems to do it correctly [2] and [3], but the directories are still
not owned by anything. They use @2 and @3, but since hicolor-icon-theme only
supports @2, I'm not sure if @3 would even do anything but wasting space.

Also, this issue is actually present for many elementary packages, but first
let's see how this problem is solved upstream.

If you'd like the package to approved, I think it's fine to remove the @2
directories (since they are just the same icons and thus shouldn't do anything)
and add a comment linking to the upstream issue.
