According to the same source, it was updated for “consistency” to match Pikmin and Pikmin 2 and the fourth Nintendo Switch game.

“The recently released Pikmin 1 & 2 Switch ports and Pikmin 4 both use the same basic Pikmin logo as this new icon, with a flower serving as the hole in the ‘P’.”

This is the second Nintendo Switch update for Pikmin 3 Deluxe, following Version 1.1.0 on November 24, 2020.
