FWIW, I have the following snippet in a function I wrote to change
tab-width:

  (let ((w (get-buffer-window (current-buffer))))
    (set-window-start w (window-start w)))

and a note that I stole that snippet from scroll-bar-maybe-window-start
in scroll-bar.el.  That function doesn't exist anymore (in Emacs 27.2),
but scroll-bar-set-window-start in scroll-bar.el does end as follows:

    (set-window-start window (point))))))
