UI Scaling Issues on HiDPI screen

Please excuse my severe choice of words in the title. But after updating to LO
6.3 I ran into so many UI scaling problems on my HiDPI screen, that I had to
revert back to LO 6.2. Resolution is 3840x2160 with a scaling factor of 250%
configured in Windows settings.

Some of the problems:

1. In the toolbars, all down-pointing triangles for opening the drop-down
menues are too large. They either get cut-off or overlap into the neighboring
toolbar-button.
2. Some icons in these drop-downs are too small
3. Sidebar takes a huge portion of the screen and can't be made narrower.
Drop-down menus and input fields in the sidebar are unnecessarily wide.
4. Icons for selecting the sidebar are too small
5. Icons in the status bar are extremely small. Smaller than the standard sized
mouse cursor actually.

See attached screenshot/montage for a better visual explanation of the issues.
The screenshot is of LO Writer, but I noticed the same problems in Calc as
well.

These issues cause serious usability problems. I tried starting LO in "Safe
Mode", but the issues persisted.
