I'm not sure if there's an easy way to ensure the fill line looks continuous in this case, but if that could be improved, it would help in a few other areas even if line-spacing weren't increased. For example, with `org-prettify-entities' set to t, subscripts add a bit to the line height, causing the fill line to appear discontinuous. Likewise, I believe overlines add a bit to the line height too. - Jim
