Attached is a screenshot of the "Welcome to Firefox" text centered in Fennec Nightly. The feature spec's screenshots show the "Welcome to Firefox" text should be left-justified.

Resolving WONTFIX because Vlad says the fix will be more work than it's worth.

Vlad said in Slack:

The problem with these constraints is that it adds more complexity to higher res screens. For example, the attached image is a Pixel 3 xl which uses the exact same values in density-independent pixels. In order to keep the UI similar across all resolutions we would have to eye adjust for all categories of display densities (mdpi,hdpi, xhdpi, xxhdpi, xxxhdpi, tablets etc).

The right margin is set at 32dp, even though it’s not visible that’s where the edge of the title and subtext views are. Based on the width and textsize constraints of the TextView Android calculates how to fit the text inside the view. In this case it will go to a new line way before reaching the edge just because it cannot fit the next in line word properly appearing as if there is even more space there
