To be fair, they have one of the very few terminal apps that support double-width/height characters and that passes the VT torture test with flying colors.

I mean, I would think this would just be using a larger font size for their bitmap, no?

Apple's terminal doesn't seem to use a specific bitmap codepath - it renders the characters at a doubled size for DECDHL and it looks like it stretches the geometry of the font horizontally for DECDWL.
