almost none.  But top and text-top, seem to have no effect
Well, they do if other parts of the paragraph are given them, but
nothing proved useful*/

at about 1.4% */

in one scaling, it may be three lines high in a larger scaling.
NS7 does a better job: a letter two lines high stays (approximately)
two lines high at all scalings
