No, the thickness of the input caret has nothing to do with the zoom level. The
input caret is getting longer then, but not thicker.

Sorry to say, but Pages cannot be compared with LO. Pages doesn´t have half of
the functionalites I need to work with documents. Even MS Word doesn´t,
although it´s older.

And surely I have tried to increase the overall kontrast, but it doesn´t make
any difference either.

So this is not a usability problem, it´s an accessibility problem, because the
visibility of the input caret was decreased and it cannot be properly
recognized by people with low or lower vision anymore. Unfortunately it isn´t
adjustable by users in macOS. In Windows and Linux it can easily be set by
users. So for macOS we need an in app solution.
