Status: WontFix (was: Unconfirmed)
This is due to the default font on Windows (Times New Roman for latin-1 content) lacking glyphs for the 9651 and 9661 codepoints while it has glyps for 9650 and 9660.

This in turn triggers font fallback (to Cambria Math on Windows 10) and whenever glyphs are mixed and matches from different fonts behavior like this is unavoidable.

You're much better of specifying a font that has all glyphs you are interested in. If you specify "font-family: 'Cambria Math'" for instance all arrows will render with the same size.
