note that it's not given that if a sub page has an icon, we have an icon for the root domain. This is one of the cases where even if potentially should have the icon, we don't have it. The code is working as expected, but not handling this case.
In this case we do have an icon for www.emag.ro, but not for emag.ro (there's an immediate redirect). The icon is defined as https://s0emagst.akamaized.net/layout/ro/favicon2.ico rather than being directly under the root, that's unfortunate.
We can maybe look at ways to associate icons to fixed (no schema and no wwww) urls or better handling of redirects.
