Windows 10: More padding/spacing in File Explorer?

There's an option under tablet mode called "When I'm not using tablet mode". Under this, there is an option for making file explorer icons easier to touch which should allegedly give File Explorer more spacing/padding, similar to Win11.

But it doesn't do anything for me. Is this a bug, or did the feature get removed?

It does actually change the spacing between icons for both the desktop and thumbnail views of a folder.
