I would be fine with a slight increase at the top, but as the linked article aptly demonstrates the entire area it's growing is on pitches at or below the knees. The strike zone should be the places where it's easiest to hit the ball, but it's gotten to the point where it's easier to hit/drive a pitch at the letters that's called a ball than one at the kneecaps that's called a strike.
