Can we make most nodes 140 width?

Blender 5.2 resize some nodes from 150 to 160 to fit the long node name text, which makes perfect sense. However now that some nodes are wider than 95% of the regular nodes is really frustrating to keep your nodetree tidy and well organized because some nodes are just there like some BLOCK.

So I come up with 2 proposals, first is just to make the font size a tiny bit smaller which doesn't really look nice. The 2nd is to remove the chevron icon that collapses the node. It really feels like a legacy icon and its just stuck in there, the UI could definetly could get a proper refresh.

I really hope some of you will consider this change, it could be improved in more ways and I'd be willing to make some UI designs if the idea is accepted :)
