The desktop-level default in GNOME changed 9 years ago. The toolkit-level 
default in GTK+ (i.e., what GTK+ does if the XSetting for the DPI is not 
set) changed only a few weeks ago. It is not the same thing. (I am 
complaining here about GTK+/GNOME APPLICATIONS, not about the GNOME 
desktop!) This means that if you have KDE set to honor the hardware DPI, and 
thus xsettings-kde will not export any DPI XSetting, GTK+ will no longer 
honor your preference. (The GTK+ developers refuse to fix it, claiming 
xsettings-kde was relying on "undocumented behavior".)
