I can confirm that this happened when upgrading from Konsole version 24.12.3 to
25.04.0.

Therefore, I'm adding bug 483292 and bug 494788 as related, as merge request
!1044 [1] was attempting to fix them.

Side notes:
- Interestingly, while testing on the current KDE neon testing 20250429 even
the default settings (using Hack font) are quite janky as soon as you enable
word mode.
- I personally use Fira Code in word mode with ligatures. With 9px font size, I
experience deal-breaking glitches, but with 10px, it suddenly appears fine.
