Comment:

 Replying to [comment:3 Thorin]:
 > Also note that chrome affects the inner window. Showing the toolbar in
 windows makes Tor Browser (with density = compact) out by 2 pixels (loads
 as 1000x998). Using the findbar alters the inner window, as does toggling
 the menu on and off, or using the sidebar.

 Yes, that's #16456. Closing this ticket as a duplicate of #22137.
