Chrome on Mac UTF-8 in URL strange behavior
It seems to be the case with all tall characters at the end, for example the dagger(†)(U+2020), the double dagger(‡)(U+2021) and box drawings light vertical and horizontal(┼)(U+253C) show the same effect.
My guess is that chrome doesn't handle those "tall" characters well and tries to show all characters in a "word", limited by for example a space or a comma, as the same height.
I also could not find another place in macOS where this was the case, so I guess it is a chrome Bug. You can file a bug report in the menu under the help section or in the google issue tracker.
