Hello,
AFAIK the recommended is not just a font size, but a font size for the
Segoe UI font.
That's relevant because Segoe UI has a somewhat shorter letter height than
Tahoma (I think that's what MS Shell Dlg 2 maps to),
so 9pt Segoe UI looks right and not too large compared to 8pt Tahoma.
However, 9pt Tahoma (as it is now) looks out of place and isn't typically
used.

For a practical example check the TortoiseSVN settings dialog: the tree
view on the left actually uses Segoe UI 9pt;
previously, the settings on the right were 8pt Tahoma - and the fonts
matched quite well together.
Now, the right side is in 9pt Tahoma and text appears larger compared to
the tree view.

Source for font:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/desktop/uxguide/text-ui - Search
for "BodyText".

-f.r.
