The width of 凰 (U+51f0) in Sans JP looks odd.

[ryota2357]

Problem

IBM-Plex-Sans-JP

In some weight, the glyph width of 凰 (U+51f0) is not 1000. (Other Kanji glyph width are 1000)

weight	width
Bold	1000
Text	1001
Thin	1000
Light	1001
Medium	1001
Regular	1002
SemiBold	1000
ExtraLight	1001

Are they expected or bug?
