Unequal column widths in Universal Theme grid?

try-itJul 29 2019 — edited Sep 16 2019

Hi, I'm struggling to understand the idea behind the fixed 12-column layout grid to place items into.The items in my forms I'd like to place on the same row rarely have the same width or multiples thereof. The width of my labels typically has no relation to the width of my fields. Yet the Universal Theme appears to force such a relation. I end up with a lot of empty areas on my form next to crammed or clipped fields and labels. In those cases, the pre-5.0 themes would have optimally distributed the available screen estate between the items because their grid column widths adapted to the items in them.

Am I doing something wrong with the Universal Theme?
