Lower case letter height changed?
See original GitHub issueGoing from v15 to v16 (fonts.google.com) changes the height of lower case letters. Anyone using a https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto link on their website will suddenly see a significant and possibly very unwanted difference.
The fonts.google.com preview itself still uses v15 which makes it even more confusing.
