Disagree. If you give more room on the outside, the batter will crowd the plate and (a) it will be harder to see the inside pitch and (b) you'll have more hbp (did he make an attempt to avoid?) to deal with.
Give the same amount in-and-out, imo. the exact amount depends on the level and the expectations of the league.
