The last column in the output has 2 extra spaces.
The data was wrapped at the requested column width of 8, but then 2 extra spaces were added.
This is important because maxcolwidths can be (and is in my case) calculated based on the actual terminal width, and adding extra space makes the table to overflow the terminal.
