SUMMARY
See the attachment.

In the first row, you can see that the Kickoff icon takes less horizontal space than a task manager item. And it's slightly off to the right (compared to the Firefox icon).

Adding a divider between Kickoff and Task Manager makes the Kickoff icon visually the same width as a Task Manager item. But it also makes the icon significantly off to the left. So probably that's not the right solution.

Task Manager items sizes are intentially variable, so there's not guarantee that they'll be sized the same way as Kickoff. So I'm afraid this is one of those "works as intended" situations.
