I think @aivanov-jdk intuition was right. I checked with different uiScales. 
With this configuration: Left side: Secondary & Right side: Primary screen 
The test passes on uiScale: 1, 1.25, 1.75, 2 .. and so on...
It fails on uiScale: 1.5, 2.5 and every other 0.5 scale increment. Surely looks like a pixel rounding error ..
