IMO not ideal, that blows up all elements and adds a lot of empty space
reducing the rendered content even further. Just increasing the elements
one can actually interact with, and needs a bit bigger for being able to
nicely hit them with a finger provides a targeted benefit, increasing
padding for all is making the overall user experience slightly worse in
my opinion.

I can recheck that, potentially we only want to do this here only for the
default/medium density.

For a notebook with touch it can be nice, or a tablet with bigger screen
so not so zoomed in too. But as above mentioned, doesn't have to be
highly optimized for that as I agree in general that touch and material
and compact layout is a bit of a niche use case.
