Thank you for your helpful note.
I changed the Edit - Preferences - Icon Theme - Custom Icon Size to "HUGE" and in so doing I was able to increase the size of the tool icons from 0.10 to 0.15 inches. Unfortunately, with my old eyes, these icons are barely usable. I was able to increase the size of the brushes using your suggestion.
HOWEVER, there are still icons/widgets that are absurdly small. As an example, the "Configure this tab" widget that allows me to change the brush sizes is so tiny that I didn't see it until I looked at the example that you posted. On my 15" 4K screen, this widget is approximately 0.03 inches wide.
I would encourage the development team to spend more time fixing the user interface for an otherwise excellent application.
As it stands, using Gimp on my 4K display gives me a migraine.
