Main menu design

Why the main menu (Protocol, Profiles,... Garmin Pay) is shown in a compressed form where the menu items are closer together than in all other menus? I don't see any benefit for this optics instead using the standard menu style. It's also more difficult to tap on the correct sub menu as well and because there are only 12 menu items displayed in this menu everything fits fine in just two 'pages' - so no additional scrolling has do be done.
