Task bar icons are too small

Thank you very much, Jon for this background--confirming that Windows 10 lacks a feature that was present in Windows 7 to substantially enlarge the icons in the Task Bar.

Of course, the current alternative to the "small" setting cannot seriously be described as "large". The current choice would more accurately be termed as between "minuscule" and "very small."

It is distressing that the only alternative suggested so far is to pay the Moscow, Russia based Startisback.com, and then only for a maximum 20 percent increase in size (not enough for those with impaired eyesight or a small screen).

Over the many versions of Windows, each Windows version brought important improvements, but also annoyingly omitted valuable features of previous versions and without any obvious lack of technical capacity to keep the feature. I was naively hoping that
Windows 10 would not repeat this pattern.

When the community of people with disabilities is hurt (as in this case), the omission is especially hard to justify. Is Microsoft planning to correct the current omission
to substantially enlarge the icons in the Task Bar? And if not, why not?
