Jetbrainsmono: One of three asterisks (***) has different hight

[mehmandarov]

One of three asterisks (*) has different hight. It seems to happen only when there are three asterisks. See attached screenshot for an example.

I think that's one purpose. FiraCode does the same: https://github.com/tonsky/FiraCode

Ah, could be! Feel free to close this issue if this one was on purpose.

It is a ligature, and it's intentional. It is shown in the ligatures section of the font presentation page : https://www.jetbrains.com/lp/mono/#ligatures

This is a ligature. Works like intended.
Thanks for feedback.

Can someone explain the reason for this ligature? I don't see any real use for this so far.
