This is intentional, i.e. the tty window size is slightly increased then
reverted to the original size, to workaround an issue where if you use "clear
scrollback and reset" the shell prompt isn't redrawn. See:
https://commits.kde.org/konsole/d346a2ccad3950dad5ec137edce27e2930d536d6

to see the issue (with both bash and zsh):
- with xterm, press and hold Ctrl then middle click and select "Reset and clear
saved lines" from the menu
- with gnome-terminal -> Terminal -> "Reset and clear"

so yes, it is a hack (a brilliant one, if I may say so), and it's still needed
AFAICS.
