Here's a bug. Notice that without a leader character, the right side % symbols all line up properly.
Now, with a '.' added as a leader character, the last % is knocked out of alignment.
I've tried to use a decimal-justified tab...
...but the same exact misalignment occurs when I add a '.' as a leader character.
Thanks, Adobe Illustrator, for making my life difficult for the last 34 years.
I was able to reproduce this.
Since you didn't mention version, I tested both CC2024 and an older one (CC2020). It did it in both, so this is not a new issue.
In my case, it was not limited to the last item, but any item depending on the number of digits and it also changes depending on font, and also what charcater you used for the leader. e.g. if you used period-space, it doesn't happen.
I did notice that if you changed the Type specs to toggle from Fractional Widths to System Layout, the effect disappears, so that might be your option for now.
It also dispapears if you change the OpenType to another type of Lining, e.g. Tabular lining.
Regardless, this shouldn't be happening AT ALL, so I consider this to be a bug.
