Thanks @bull500!
I can confirm this issue in Firefox Android 47 & 50.

Removing the display and vertical align properties here makes the 'msn' text heading align properly in Firefox. But it doesn't look right in Chrome.

header-common > h1 a, #header-common > h1 > span {
    color: #fff;
    display: inline-block;
    vertical-align: middle;
}

But if we try changing positioning to absolute and adjust the margin-left a bit, it looks pretty good in both.

#header-common .vertical {
position: absolute;
margin-left: -3rem;
}

For Microsoft/MSN developers, we are talking about

The current code is

<h1>
<a class="logo" aria-label="msn" href="/en-in" data-id="15" data-m="{&quot;i&quot;:15,&quot;p&quot;:14,&quot;n&quot;:&quot;msnlogo&quot;,&quot;y&quot;:14,&quot;l&quot;:&quot;homepage&quot;,&quot;o&quot;:1}">msn </a>
 <a class="vertical" href="/en-in/#tevt=click_nonnav" data-id="16" data-m="{&quot;i&quot;:16,&quot;p&quot;:14,&quot;n&quot;:&quot;HeaderVerticalLink&quot;,&quot;y&quot;:14,&quot;l&quot;:&quot;homepage&quot;,&quot;o&quot;:2}">msn</a>

 </h1>

The much simpler fix is to remove the space in between the two a href aka
to replace the current

>msn </a> 
<a class="ver

by

>msn </a><a class="ver

Contacted Microsoft about it.

This issue still exists, tested in Firefox 53 for Android.

The issue is still reproducible.

Tested with:
Browser / Version: Firefox Mobile Nightly 56.0a1 (2017-06-19)
Operating System: LG G5 (Android 7.0) - Resolution 1440 x 2560 pixels (~554 ppi pixel density)

7613 is a duplicate of this issue.

Removing display: inline-block on the h1 will fix the issue.

Recontacted today.
