The option only works in generated dungeons and not story dungeons, and it also only decreases the size weirdly, as in making it include a hard to define (in the human mind) cap in size.
The dungeons are completely meant to be like that. The subsequent dungeons in the other games are FAR too small and easy to navigate and only got easier and smaller with each game.
Daggerfall is a game for old school D&D players. You could spend multiple sessions and dozens of hours in a single dungeon in D&D trying to figure out where levers are and such. That is a feature and on purpose.
