The 'e' of ALYZÉE is misplaced and the menu is not 100% visible. Chrome renders it ok. Safari does not. Firefox does not.

Given Firefox has the same behaviour, I wonder whether the website is not browser specific.

It's certainly better in FF and Chrome. WebKit seems to have some z-ordering issues.

Looks like a different font style ends up being used by Safari and Firefox vs. Chrome, so our text is wider. z-ordering seems like it should be tracked as a separate bug, as this is not part of the original description, and certainly has a separate cause.

The container width is set to 529px. We measure the content 529.73px wide -> fractional overflow.

Ignore that last comment. We are tracking this under its own radar.

I don't think there is any basis in the CSS Fonts spec for requiring synthetic-bold to have the same glyph advance metrics as the regular face. In most font families, bold tends to have larger advances than regular, and it's entirely reasonable for a browser that is synthesizing bold in the absence of a real face to do the same thing. So IMO the web-platform-tests added here are imposing a constraint that the spec does not mandate, and that conflicts with common typographic expectations.
