Why is table width distribution not linear in Chrome?

Reported by francois...@outlook.com, Nov 29 2017

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/61.0.3163.100 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. https://wptest.center/#/5gwaq0

What is the expected behavior?
The evolution of the size of the first column should eventually be linear

What went wrong?
Chrome seems to erratically increase by either 1.33px or 2px instead of always incrementing by 1.66px

Generally speaking the values do not match the ones found in Edge and Firefox, it would be interesting to know why.

Did this work before? No 

Does this work in other browsers? Yes

Chrome version: 61.0.3163.100  Channel: n/a
OS Version: 10.0
Flash Version:
 
Here is a graph comparing Edge/Firefox sizing and Chrome sizing

We never fully implemented subpixel layout for tables (issue 377847) so it's not surprising that we don't do this right. That we _sometimes_ use subpixels is surprising. Actually, running your wptest in chrome shows integers only. Where did you find the floats?
This might be because my device has a 150% dpi zoom level. But that means then that the same site on different devices can report different sizes, interesting...

On a desktop I indeed get 16 18  20  21 23 25 27 which would have indicated me what the problem was, I was confused by the .33 and .66 but they do make sense if 2 css pixels = 3 device pixels
