Comment:
@jitendrabanjara1991 thanks. Interesting case. Worth noting it happens
also with Chrome, it's just less visible.
Seems to me this was introduced in [32844] where the line-height was
changed from a value in pixels `line-height: 22px;` to a unitless value:
`line-height: 1.7;`.
On desktop, the computed value is 13 x 1.7 = 22px.
However, in the mobile view the font size increases to 14 pixels so the
computed value becomes 23.8px.
Browsers have different rounding algorithms. They also render fonts in a
slightly different way. This could explain why it's more evident with
Firefox.
According to the WordPress coding standards "Line height should also be
unit-less, unless necessary to be defined as a specific pixel value" but
this is not always desirable. This is one of the cases where an unit-less
value produces a bug :)
I'd lean towards moving some of the styles from the wrappers to the
buttons, to that the buttons can increase their height keeping a correct
styling.
