Not OP, but if you look at the Hello World code example, the “HelloWorld” class is visually divided at the l’s and the o and W are glued together. Looks more like “Hel l oWorld”.
If it works for you, that’s fine. You are right with the monospaced font being limited to the boxes. Jetbrains mono uses ligatures to overcome certain spacing limits. On top of this some characters are designed to connect better to their surroundings, as the „l“ mentioned, which is not just a stroke, but connects to the neighboring characters with the top and bottom strokes.

That’s because Victor Mono are a tabular font meaning equal width no matter what character it is :) I find it nice.
No, that is not a valid reason to look that bad, JetBrains Mono is a fixed with font and it manages to get the characters evenly distributed.
