For one, and this has nothing to do with your cursor design, but

exactly the reason why we're making new cursors? At the risk of

closed-minded, I feel as though the cursors we have are great, or
definitely good enough to fulfill their purpose.
Though they do fulfill their purpose I'd say there is room for
improvement. I would like to see something similar to the Polar
cursors
which come in 2 different sizes so you choose the appropriate size for
your screen.
To me cursors deserve the same attention as any other icon since they
are used for every single mouse click from the time of install onward.
They should be easily identifiable, functional and beautiful.
The current icons are functional and much prettier than the old
crooked
and aliased MS cursors but there certainly have been improvements
since
these were created as well.

Please be more specific. So there have been improvements to the
design of the cursor. I personally haven't noticed any. Which
improvements do you mean? Surely the cursors deserve attention, but
they absolutely shouldn't be the victim of overly active designers
who don't really know how to improve their usability but still wish
to make _some_ changes to them for the sake of change. That's why I'd
personally be careful on making changes to them.
