--- Comment #18 from Caolán McNamara <[email protected]> ---
The original "2" wasn't explicitly chosen for for macos, it was the age old
default from the initial import before any osx-specific port IIRC, i.e.
git show 8ab086b6cc054501bfbf7ef6fa509c393691e860
vcl/source/app/settings.cxx|grep CursorSize

I don't think there is a macOS setting/property to indicate a preferred caret
size. I (probably) picked 1 explicitly in 2022 because that's what the caret
width looked like to me in native apps, probably comparing to pages.

I don't have any particular skin in the game, so whatever works is fine by me.
I suspect a thicker by default cursor will generate regression complaints too
though :-) FWIW I don't see anything immediately obvious in
https://developer.apple.com/documentation/appkit/nsworkspace#Supporting-Accessibility
of a setting that might imply that a wider caret should be used if enabled.
