Yes, syncing the SDDM settings works around the problem. It basically hides the
bug, but it took quite a bit of digging around to track down.

Let's say I'm a normal user of KDE and just set up my machine. I have a high
DPI display, so I set my global scale to 200%. The login screen is a bit small,
but that's not a big deal. However, sometimes when I log in my desktop and
panel menus are smaller than normal. Rebooting fixes the problem.

Out of the box it's broken. Fixing it requires two things:
1. Deducing that the problem is related to the login screen DPI. Since it's
inconsistent, that might be a little difficult to deduce.
2. Knowing that you can synchronize the login settings. That requires some
spelunking through the settings.

The fact that there is a workaround doesn't mean there is no problem. The fact
that Plasma doesn't always respect the KDE settings is a bug. It results in
strange behavior, and finding that workaround when you only see the problem
takes quite a bit of effort.
