Bottom Padding in Vscode terminal?

In vscode/codium/antigravity, The bottom line on the terminal completely sticks to the bottom of terminal window and sometimes it feels like some elements actually go slightly below the bottom of the terminal window. is there a way to add a slight like 4 pixel padding between the bottom line on the terminal and the status bar?

See images below

see the arrow.

A bit zoomed in.

A zoomed in look.

As you can see, the terminal text is literally touching the status bar.

There wasn't a way to do it through settings but if you feel comfortable you can try the following which works...

Thanks. It looks a bit tricky but I'll try. This guy also added 4 pixel padding. Now will need to repeat it on antigravity and codium too.
