The savings in space come when you decrease text size, not increase it.
In any case, given your personal preference, you would simply leave the option
value as nil. This is about giving users the option. The default value can be

Of course, if your windows are full-screen, then this wouldn't be very useful to
you. But some users split windows; some often have windows that are less than
full-screen.
