Your indentation character is U+258F "▏" - a block elements glyph. Right now, we draw those the exact way the font designed them, which may be too short if you've customized your line height. (Previously we would stretch them but that would result in other issues, so we stopped doing that.)
What you want requires us to draw our own, custom block element glyphs that are always the perfect size. We track this over here: #5897

Right now we have no plans to work on that issue, but we loosely sort our backlog priorities by the number of 👍 on our issues. In other words, it'd be nice if you could leave an upvote over at #5897. 🙂
(We're also happy to accept any contributions working towards resolving that issue of course!)
