Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue on openSUSE Tumbleweed using /usr/share/applications/dev.warp.Warp.desktop and the reported Warp version, then compare Warp's text rendering with the system font preferences and another terminal. Done means Warp's GUI text matches the configured size and is no longer visibly blurry.
