Maybe they aren't supposed to need to any more. IOW, they should
automatically be the same unless you make some selection somewhere or take
some other action to make them not the same.

I looked through the thread and was unable to find any statement that the
fonts TB was using were different from those used by KDE apps. All I found
was you wanted larger, and nothing about where you wanted larger. The option
to use KDE fonts in GTK apps in prior versions never meant using any other
than the same. I suppose they're probably supposed to be doing that by
default now. We still don't know that you want a change due to their being
different than KDE's, rather than simply wanting bigger.
