Title moves off-page when adding new line with `<br>`

Description

When I am plotting normally, sometimes I want to add a new line to the title, and use that as a sub-title. When I do this, it will move the first line of my title up and off the page. This occurs even when I set title_y=1 and title_yref="container" and title_yanchor="top".

Reproducible Example

First, let's define the default plot.

from plotly import express as px
data = px.data.stocks(indexed=True, datetimes=True)
fig = (
    px.line()
    .add_scatter(
        name="Google",
        x=data.index,
        y=data["GOOG"],
        showlegend=True,
    )
    .add_scatter(
        name="Amazon",
        x=data.index,
        y=data["AMZN"],
        showlegend=True,
    )
    .add_scatter(
        name="Netflix",
        x=data.index,
        y=data["NFLX"],
        showlegend=True,
    )
)

When I run this with a title with only 1 line, it looks good:

fig1 = fig.update_layout(
    margin={"t": 40, "b": 10, "l": 10, "r": 10},
    title=dict(
        text="<b>Stock Prices</b>",
        x=0.5,
        xref="container",
        xanchor="center",
        y=0.99,
        yref="container",
        yanchor="top",
    ),
    xaxis_title="Date",
    yaxis_title="Values",
    legend_title="Stock",
)
fig1.show()

plot1

However, when I change only the title to add a second line, it will push the top of the title off the page.

fig2 = fig1.update_layout(title_text="<b>Stock Prices</b><br>For years 2018-2019")
fig2.show()

plot2

It will even have the same problem when I leave the margins as their default values.

fig3 = fig2.update_layout(margin=None)
fig3.show()

plot3

If I manually move the title downwards, it will resolve the issue. However, that is not the point here. Because the title should already be anchored to the top of the container at y level 0.99. I shouldn't need to manually move it downwards even more when I add a new line to the title.

fig4 = fig2.update_layout(
    margin={"t": 40, "b": 10, "l": 10, "r": 10},
    title_y=0.9,
)
fig4.show()

plot4

Conclusion

Something whacky is happening to the title whenever we set it to run with two lines. Even if we lock it to the top and with the reference to the container, it will still somehow be overwritten.

Please help to fix it.

Additional information

I include the schema files for each plot:

plot1_schema.json.txt plot2_schema.json.txt plot3_schema.json.txt plot4_schema.json.txt

And the full script for entirely reproducible example:
