Aaaah, okay. We talked about this before. The thing with design is concessions. The question about that is: how is that consession reached?

"Everyone I know is having small iconography, so that's my choice." I'm actually not all too sure if they ever have and use feedback about that subject.
Iconsize and fontsize is mostly based on the screenresolution, which is a good approach, I think. Maybe a solution should or could be a more indepth or comprehensive explanation or tutorial about adjusting design elements within any OS. And I mean: as a standard part of an install manual.
