Text is seemingly misaligned vertically

This is what a centered GUI with Center on both vertical & horizontal text properties looks like. There’s a letter ‘e’ directly in the center but with roblox text it’s never actually the center. Align top/bottom also don’t seem to work properly.

Shown above is Align Center on Vert/Horiz. Here is Align Center on Horizontal, but Align Text Top on vertical (bottom):

As you can see it’s only moved up 1 pixel, even though the text can easily fit:

Yeah, this is an annoying thing I’ve noticed in my time as a UI designer on Roblox. It’s probably due to the fonts, but the text system needs an upgrade to be more dynamic and capable of processing stuff like this outside of the font itself.

I would personally make this a feature request as it would require a change to the text system itself, and not just a little logic repair.
