org-indent-mode adds extra vertical white space -- is this expected behavior? How do I remove it?

**UPDATE (2022/04/23): org-mode 9.5.3 has resolved these issues** The emacs package in my distro has recently been updated from 27.2 (org-mode 9.4.4.) to 28.1 (org-mode 9.5.2). In this newer version, `org-indent-mode` adds a lot of vertical white space in between lines of text. I personally don't like the looks of this but more importantly it's wasting a lot of space on my already cramped laptop screen. I notice that it's not as pronounced when using other fonts but I don't want to change from Terminus. The screenshots are captioned with the emacs and org-mode versions and whether `org-indent-mode` is on or off. Note that the only change from vanilla emacs is setting the default font to Terminus. Is this expected behavior? If so, where would I configure this to behave the way it did in 27.2 with org-mode 9.4.4? Also, I'm not a fan of the way the `STARTUP` keyword face is so different from the rest of the buffer. Is there one variable that I can set to make org-mode use the default font everywhere? Or do I have to change each of the dozens of faces individually? ​ [Emacs 27.2 \(org-mode 9.4.4\) org-indent-mode off](https://preview.redd.it/ysfs3pmr5tr81.png?width=672&format=png&auto=webp&s=aeeb338fb7271a06d361a6e1049b89279e679b16) [Emacs 27.2 \(org-mode 9.4.4\) org-indent-mode on](https://preview.redd.it/m6dd11nr5tr81.png?width=672&format=png&auto=webp&s=18644a987b83d53c1ba8c2454feb17da0185975c) [Emacs 28.1 \(org-mode 9.5.2\) org-indent-mode off](https://preview.redd.it/2rhsy18t5tr81.png?width=672&format=png&auto=webp&s=421af5fb8fdea4df7bb264fca922bfb30566a45b) [Emacs 28.1 \(org-mode 9.5.2\) org-indent-mode on](https://preview.redd.it/4i60ez7t5tr81.png?width=672&format=png&auto=webp&s=f178eca298a3cbf82f25f0e30643a10454d897aa)

Bring up M-x and then search for "whitespace-cleanup" ...and you probably get more options too related to whitespace.

Thanks, but these all look like they are dealing with horizontal whitespace rather than vertical whitespace. It looks to me like org-indent-mode is changing the line-height somehow.

Is this happening on all fonts or just this font ?

It happened with the default font but it wasn't nearly as noticeable as it is with Terminus. I just tried a couple more randomly... It doesn't happen with Noto Sans Mono Regular but it does happen with Liberation Mono Regular and Inconsolata Regular.

Edit: sorry, I had responded to the wrong post.
