Agree with that, however there are substantial Accessibility and other use
cases (e.g. preparing documentation by screen capture, or live
instruction/demos) where ability for LO to selectively scale class (menu, TB,
dialog) of UI elements remains legitimate enhancement outside scope of average
usage provided by os/DE scaling methods. As enhancement still valid.

Unfortunately SAL_FORCEDPI environment variable does nothing for Windows os/DE
(just verified it does not [1]). Documentation [2] indicates support for gtk3 &
qt5/kf5 plugins only--so not a global workaround.
