Is my vision that bad? No, it's just a bug in Apple's Calculator

Comically, I didn't even notice those wobbly numbers in the first screenshot, I was too busy noticing:

- "Unicode" button label way off center

- The 8/10/16 selector being off center in its own position

- The indicators for bits 31 and 63 are not aligned with each other

- x and + not being horizontally aligned (I believe this is an icon-font issue, seen on HN before so knew to look for it)

God, the more you look, the more you find. It's actually horrible.

Also, the "32" label sits directly centered under the bit above it, but literally none of the others do, they're wherever-the-fuck.

The x, + etc don't look centered vertically either -- compared to the numbers to the left of them.

2's and 1's look like they are a different font size to everything else.

The padding on the buttons at the top is hideous -- the downstroke on the y almost touches the outside of the button.

I fear how awful this looks in localized versions, if they made any.
