Welcome to the Forums.
All I can say is that, if they aren't, then I'm having the same problem on 4 different systems, 2 of which use Windows 10, 1 using Windows 7 and the last being a Mac. The Mac icon is slightly different, but not, imo, significantly so.

Is there any way to upscale that small bottom right icon instead since it would make more sense to me into finding the files easier?

The small icon appears on thumbnail previews in File Explorer. You have to disable the thumbnail preview to get a full-size icon.

I only get that icon when creating a New OpenDocument by right clicking on the Windows desktop and choosing New -> OpenOffice Spreadsheet.
Opening Calc (the spreadsheet section of OpenOffice), then creating a file and saving it, gives me a different icon that looks more like what you seem to be describing.
Attached is an example of what I see using File Explorer with the View settings set to give me Extra Large Icons.
There is some data from the file visible, so I have chosen a file with non-confidential data. The smaller the icon size, the more room the green color at the bottom right covers. At the Small Icon size it appears to be the entire icon.

I found a better option for disabling thumbnails only for office, I disabled thumbnail preview from the installation menu.

My preference is to always use long, meaningful, filenames, rather than rely on preview icons. The departure from the original 8.3 filename was a great breakthrough.
