I can reproduce this with Ubuntu 23.10.1.  It is necessary to select
large text while running the installer (I did use the new installer.)
The key difference is on a host installed without selecting large text
in the installer, "gsettings get org.gnome.desktop.interface text-
scaling-factor" will reset the factor to 1.0.  On a host installed
*with* selecting large text in the installer, it will reset the factor
to 1.25. Presumably the installer is somehow setting the default value
in the installed image, but I don't know how to check that. Also
presumably, the Accessablity menu implements "turn on large text" to
mean "set text-scaling-factor 1.25" and "turn off large text" to mean
"reset text-scaling-factor".  So once the default value is set to 1.25,
turning  off is effectively a no-op.  I do not know whether the bug here
is in the installer -- that it shouldn't push the install value into the
defaults of the image -- or in the accessibility dialog, which maybe
should implement "turn off large text" as "set text-scaling-factor 1.0".
