Thank you, @Tyriar. Appreciate the investigation and fix.

@Tyriar Let me know if you’d like me to set a breakpoint somewhere and monitor a running instance. For now I’ll try to set a breakpoint on that line and see if I can get you the cached W width.

The problem appears to be this style. If I toggle the letter-spacing style rule, the terminal appears to be fixed:

I’m not sure why, but only the terminals that are in an accessible mode (why are some of them switching to be accessible?) seem to be broken.
