Or you could just right-click the desktop, add new shortcut, browse to
iexplore.exe........ ;-)

That is a shortcut, not a system icon then.
In other words the right click functionality differs...

This was made for people who want to go to the Iexp. options fast...

Or right click a blank spot on the desktop and choose Properties and then
click Change desktop icons on the left.

They removed it from RTM. It was there up to RC2 and subsequent drops.

So they did. I still have the icon on my desktop, though. I wonder if it's
because I updated to RTM over RC2.

It's not a "supported" upgrade route.

It does work, and worked well, for me.
