Ditto, having wider tracks and pads gives more leeway, especially as imperfections in the exposure-process tends to narrow stuff. This is for prototype etching. For layouts that I send off to PCB-houses, I make everything thinner.
Ideally, there should be an option in PCBNew to "fatten" when poltting :)

I always tend to make pads, especially on connectors as large as I can, same
with signal tracks. But I have always (up until very recently) had to etch
my own boards
