height() method returns different values in Chrome and Firefox

Description

Instead of a jsfiddle, I'm including a link to the api docs, which exhibit the bug

If I go to

http://api.jquery.com/height/#example-0

and click 'Get Paragraph Height', I get 36px in Chrome v25 and 34px in Firefox v19.

Why is that a bug?

Why would I get a different value from the same function on the same page in different browsers?

They have different default stylesheets? I don't see anything in the example that specifies all the paragraph properties in a way that ensures you get the same height. Seems fine to me. Ask around on StackOverflow and see what the hive mind thinks of that assertion.
