When I set icons explicitly with symbol_map, they are rendered much smaller than when kitty automatically set them with a fallback mechanism.
I am using kitty 0.24.2 and icons only nerd font: Symbols-2048-em Nerd Font Complete.ttf
Icons are set explicitly with:
# F655 :
# E615 :
# F0F6 :
symbol_map U+F655,U+E615,U+F0F6 Symbols Nerd Font
With this settings I get
When I comment out the snippet above and let kitty make all the job, I get

The same problem I have with Material Design Icons icons only font.
I read that when fallback kitty use fontconfig cache. My $HOME/.config/fontconfig directory is empty.
How to make font rendering uniform between these two cases? And if icons can be rendered bigger or smaller how can I control their size?
