Smaller screens can adversely alter forum's appearance

I admit this is a mix of an FYI and a highlight of a feature/display limitation, because I am not sure if it affects many users here. I would be curious to know if others on smaller displays are experiencing a similar thing, though.
I recently got a new laptop, a 14" Acer Swift 3 (so I still can't play WQ, haha). It's running Windows 10. On this smaller sized laptop, the default text scaling is 150% (System > Display > Scale and Layout > Change the size of text, apps, and other items). My web browser is Edge, font size there is set to 100%.
Somehow, the WQ forum is the only place where these settings seem to have adverse affects. Here is what the 150% Windows setting does to some topic's cells:
Switching the Windows setting to 100% resolves the problem, at the expense of 50% smaller font:
So probably not much that can be done other than to "suck it up" and change settings on my end, but wanted to share in case anyone else was having a similar issue. I suppose phpBB coding might be what causes the offending text to overlap rather than wrap and begin a new line?
