I have found the same in many other cases such as the border of the ellipse
where they are to different in the thickness. "Even it is 1 pixel width
border"; The 45 degree are a little thicker/thiner than the 90 degree etc. .
.

The way we work-around that problem by not using border at all (except for
the case of 1 pixel). The rest we make the path element to draw the border.
In that case we have a "very much"- well controlling over how the "border"
look a like.

Hope it help.
