I have problems comparing with MS Word, but it is true that Notepad and Emacs render monospaced similarly when using the font dialogue. I suspect that the variations are due to VSCode's display engine. I just realized that the same discrepancies (more pleasant rendering of Consolas) can be seen by embedding the *.cc files in HTML (as 
) and displaying them on Microsoft Edge, btw.
