definitely more than 1/4"
Might be that we have more precise door builders than other parts of the world but from a German perspective that gap is huge and I don't think I have ever seen one that tall on regular internal doors (as opposed to e.g. outdoor shed doors or similar places where insulation is taken less seriously).
I'm in california in a shitty apartment and the door gap is the tip of my index finger to the first knuckle. Maybe 3/4"
It's called an undercut, most are 1" and are to allow for air movement.
