I think this is a trade-off of using the keyboard in landscape orientation (which is not a good UX). We used to have a taller default keyboard size in orientation, but it covered most of the screen, making it hard to type (see #7119). On the other hand, now that we have a shorter keyboard to see more screen, all the keys are squished.

As a workaround, the user can always go into the "Adjust keyboard height" menu and make the landscape keyboard taller (so the longpress keys aren't squished)...

Not really. The font should be scaling to fit the bounding box. At extremes, this may be unreadably small (which is not a good UX), but in the screenshots given, a properly scaled font should be readable.
