This is because Org automatically inserts zero width space in ]​] to
escape ] in the link description.
Zero width space is displayed by Emacs as 1 pixel-wide space.
Then, Org mode rounds the width of the table cell up, leading to the
observed misalignment.

So, it is not exactly a bug, but I improved the width calculation to use
rounding instead of ceiling.

Fixed, on main.
