I can't find any examples now, but I'm positive that there have been "coding" fonts which do this that have hit the front page of HN. Highlighted as a feature in the screenshots, even.

Another example of form over function, to the utter detriment of function, IMHO.

Perhaps Fira Code?

But I think it's different: it uses double-width characters for two-character ligatures, so this doesn't break alignment.
