I did not think about it. Probably you are correct. Yet it still helps
if you have big/multiline axis label.

Well, I see the problem.

One solution is to use custom Formatter for yticks/xticks (e.g.
FixedFormatter or FormatStrFormatter) to ensure that tick labels have
the same width/height (printed with the same precision or padded with
spaces). User's Guide explains how to use formatters.
