It's nice that it's being an accepted point of view this time.

Usually I get a lot of aggressive responses about how I don't understand presentation mode. I do, and it's crap.

By contrast, I only want the content to scale, and actively cannot stand entire UIs scaling and looking and feeling like web pages. If this was ever implemented, it would need an opt-out to please us both.

Which is fine. As I already mentioned, even if they just had a text scaling which applied to all the editors so I didn't have to keep doing it every time I opened a file that would be a massive QOL improvement.
