This almost certainly has to do with the way we're scaling box-drawing characters. I'm sure there's a dupe somewhere, Michael Niksa (@miniksa) can you help find it?

I believe #5816 was originally where the remaining vertical banding issues were being tracked, but that was later marked as dupe of #6161, which covers a broader range of concerns with the block and box-drawing characters.

Okay yep, that's the one I was thinking of. Thanks!
