Comment (by kjellr):

 Thanks for the ticket, @hardik-amipara! As noted by @SergeyBiryukov above,
 these spacers exist to create some vertical rhythm between sections of the
 navigation. Since the menu can be fairly long, I think the empty space
 helps break it up a bit. I do not think they should be removed for now.

 There's another ticket open to consider more structural changes to he
 navigation, and I think that solution does remove the spacing in favor of
 a more clear nav to begin with. That's worth checking out:
