[NOT A BUG] The meter bounding box and drawn visuals of a String meter differ, resulting in unexpected behaivour

[EasierStyle]FontSize=100SolidColor=FF000044Text=#CurrentSection#[First]Meter=StringMeterStyle=EasierStyle[Second]Meter=StringMeterStyle=EasierStyleX=12RY=12RStringAlign=LeftBottom[Third]Meter=StringMeterStyle=EasierStyleText=ThirdY=12R

1. [First] is positioned normal, no problem there
2. [Second] has Y=R, which means that the anchor for the text will start from the bottom of the previous meter, on StringAlign=RightTop (which is default), this will just look like a list, which is normal, however, I want to make the text some form of subtitle, so I want it to (roughly) have the same baseline as [First], so what do we do? We make the anchor position of the text be the top right corner of [First], this can be done easily with X=R, Y=R and StringAlign=LeftBottom to make the text start drawing from there
3. This is where the bug happens. Now we maybe want to add text, so we added [Third]. For it, the thing I want to do is simple, I just want to add simple paragraph text, I know I want the text to be StringAlign=RightTop and to be relative to the bottom of the previous meter, when we do that though, we find something funny, the meter is relative to the String before the StringAlign transformation
