(Not sure I follows your logic; are you implying that the difference in
pixel size is converted in an equivalent number of columns?)

No other participant in this thread has witnessed the symptoms you have,
so we need more information about your setup. Your OP says:
> emacs-version 28.2
And your font backend seems to be ftcrhb. Given that, could you…
* tell us what versions of Cairo and Harfbuzz you are using?
* try to compile the tip of the emacs-28 branch? There's a bugfix for
Harfbuzz in the emacs-28.2..emacs-28 range, and the corresponding
report (bug#57976) mentions extra spacing for emoji (the OP's
screenshot actually shows symptoms similar to yours, AFAICT).
* try to compile the emacs-29 branch?
* (confirm that you see this from emacs -Q? I don't remember you saying
so, but it wouldn't be the first thing I've missed)
