Since the updates from June 2023, line-height:normal is far too big on some devices. #53

Even since the June 2023 updates, line-height:normal is far too big on some devices. line-height:normal seems closer to 2.2 than 1.2.

More specifically, https://fonts.gstatic.com/s/rubik/v28/iJWKBXyIfDnIV7nBrXw.woff2 is broken (v28) but https://fonts.gstatic.com/s/rubik/v26/iJWKBXyIfDnIV7nBrXw.woff2 works correctly. (v26)

I'm... having a hard time narrowing down the possible causes, or creating a reproducible test-case, but this seems to be a regression of the font itself:

  1. It doesn't occur the older version of the font.
  2. It doesn't occur with other fonts.
  3. It doesn't occur in Firefox, only in Chrome.
  4. It occurs on the official font website: https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Rubik

I'm... not sure how to provide enough information to create a reproducible test-case, but if I can provide any more information, I'll be more than happy to. (I... don't THINK it's a problem with Windows 10's font scaling, but I can't figure out what else might be different.)
