Surprisingly the meta is exempted from this flaw, but I was able to reproduce it in our production servers and almost all other sites I know.

Another example:

Edit: it appears that when a topic has many posts, the (topic progress) element will not be visible without scrolling. That’s why I couldn’t reproduce it in some sites before like meta.
