Row padding options

I'm looking for a way to change the table settings in the gantt chart - for example shrinking the padding

Compare #text(14pt)[#gantt(yaml("timeline.yaml"))]

to #text(8pt)[#gantt(yaml("timeline.yaml"))]

The latter has way more space in the rows than it needs. I tried setting table(row-gutter: 0pt), and also some things in pad() and par(), but haven't been able to adjust it at all. Any way to do this?
