In the case of the brackets, it clearly is.  The brackets form a new
total object, and the resulting object dimensions do not correspond to
what the brackets have encased.

This is a discrepancy.  Which of the discrepancy parts you call a
non-bug is up to you.

Bug 882 may or may not be related, and may or may not be a bug, but this
discrepancy in the context of brackets _is_ a bug.
