while using the font in VSCode for coding a board game text display, i noticed the box drawing characters are slightly thinner than a normal space. the image below shows how 3 horizontal box drawing characters (─, unicode 0x2500) are thinner than 3 spaces by (on my display) about 5 pixels at a font size of 14

i've verified the same error to be occurring with the horizontal & up (┴, unicode 0x2534), horizontal & down (┬, unicode 0x252c), and horizontal & vertical (┼, unicode 0x253c) characters, as well as the full block character (█, unicode 0x2588), and i assume that this issue extends to all box drawing characters (unicode 0x2500 to 0x257f)
