Logo.svg optimizations?

[KyleMit]

This is probably silly, and probably out of scope for this repo, but I was copying the logo.svg file from the startup repo to create a test case for importing images in an online fiddle. I was surprised it's such a big file in order to display essentially a circle and three identical ellipses.

It probably doesn't matter, and it's probably just consuming the official logo and modifying any branding / marketing stuff is a heavy lift for a couple extra bits, but it could be vastly simplified.

Here's the current version (1.6 KB)

And here's a cleaner, more readable, more composable, smaller version (0.6 KB):

<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" viewBox="0 0 841.9 595.3">
  <g fill="none" stroke="#61DAFB" stroke-width="23" >
    <ellipse cx="420.9" cy="296.5" rx="235" ry="91" />
    <ellipse cx="420.9" cy="296.5" rx="235" ry="91" transform="rotate(120 420.9 296.5)"/>
    <ellipse cx="420.9" cy="296.5" rx="235" ry="91" transform="rotate(240 420.9 296.5)"/>
  </g>
  <circle cx="420.9" cy="296.5" r="45.7" fill="#61DAFB"/>
</svg>

And here are both images side-by-side:

Even if the goal was to retain pixel perfection by drawing the perimeter of each ellipse, the first one could at least be re-used twice and rotated 120° and 240°

For extra optimization xmlns can be removed too :)

This is certainly interesting @KyleMit. We're just using the official React logo though. They might be interested in these optimizations and then we would update our version as well. I'm going to close this for now as I don't think it's out place to mess with this.
