Research direction

Start by running the mandatory HairlineBorderRepro against React Native 0.87.0 on iOS, comparing the border stroke with the background fill at different absolute Y offsets. Trace the Fabric/New Renderer path for StyleSheet.hairlineWidth borders and verify that the border is rendered at every offset shown by the reproducer.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

API: StyleSheet Needs: Triage :mag: Type: New Architecture
Description

a border stroke of StyleSheet.hairlineWidth is not drawn when the view lands at certain absolute Y offsets, while a plain background fill with the identical height (height: StyleSheet.hairlineWidth) renders at every offset.

  1. Launch the repro
  2. Compare the two columns - the left one would have missing lines
