Yes! It's miniaturisation. But not an issue when done consciously. We all get used to it. May be it was easier for me because I came to A320 from B747 classic where everything was huge and four of them which were rarely aligned. But I flew other twins A300 and A310 never did walking. It helps when there is friction which could be unequal.
