The way I suggest we carry this out is an experiment on master for 30
days, similarly to how we recently did with unbinding `M-o'.  This would
allow us to gather feedback and see how well this works in practice.

FWIW, I just tried both 0.15 and 0.10 and IMO it improves readability.
There are some negative consequences, though, like the "line" of
display-fill-column-indicator-mode losing any apparience of continuity.

I'm not sure if there's an easy way to ensure the fill line looks continuous in this case, but if that could be improved, it would help in a few other areas even if line-spacing weren't increased. For example, with `org-prettify-entities' set to t, subscripts add a bit to the line height, causing the fill line to appear discontinuous. Likewise, I believe overlines add a bit to the line height too.
