SSRS - export to Word - Column widths in tables do not respect the defined widths

There are a couple of scenarios where column widths are not respected when exporting to Word.

The most common is where a nested table has a column with "narrow" content - the column width sometimes shrinks to contents.

The other is when a column contains a long word with no spaces or breaking characters - the Word column width is increased to the width of that word.
