It should not scale, but the default size is too small. Compare the size
of \setminus in xtis from that in cambria or even LM. Just going by the
glyph table at stix site, set minus should correspond to glyph 3991 in
STIXGeneral.otf. I do not know how to view that glyph, so do not know if
xtis uses the right glyph or not.
