Preventing TextInputLayout from making TextInputEditText taller

I want that password toggle feature, and it seems TextInputLayout has that feature, not TextInputEditText. But as you see the code below, even though I set the height to wrap_content and app:hintEnabled="false", the height of TextInputEditTextgets taller if the TextInputEditText is in TextInputLayout. Compare that to the height of the TextInputEditText outside the TextInputLayout.

Since I do not use that hint animation, there is no need that the TextInputLayout to increase the height of TextInputEditText. How can I prevent TextInputLayout from increasing the height of TextInputEditText?

Only solution I have found so far is to set android:layout_height to fixed size. For example 40dp.
