Public bug reported:

I wish to report that the change of default font sizes to 13.333px in
libgnome 2.25.1-0ubuntu2 results, for me, in text in gnome-terminal and
in thunderbird's folder and message-list panes which is excessively
large, occupying far more screen real-estate than is practical, and
being sufficiently large that it appears bold even when it is not bold.

The incongruous size is most evident in Thunderbird, where the folder-
tree and message-list text is huge in comparison to the message-text
pane.

I do not know why this change was made, but I need to point out that for
users of my class (which I would consider to be "average
desktop/laptop/netbook user"), this change takes the default from "sane"
to "sufficiently disquieting to _require_ changing immediately".

Change to 13.333px is a regression for me - fonts far too large
