The grid definition

.game-grid {
    display:        grid ;
    grid-template-columns:  300px 300px  60px ;
    grid-template-rows:  40px 300px 150px ;
}

did not take into account the 1px border that I had defined in the CSS. If anything, the canvas should have "busted-out" of its limits, but it was doing the opposite.

Against all reasonable logic, "bloating" the values to include the border thickness as follows,

.game-grid {
    display:        grid ;
    grid-template-columns:  302px 302px  62px ;
    grid-template-rows:  42px 302px 152px ;
}

made the gaps on both side and below grid-item5, BoxE, disappear.

BoxE canvas showing placement with no gaps, but with upper border only 1px wide, unlike two sides.

Since the positioning of the canvas was taken from the coordinates"div" coordinates, there is no rationale behind this working, but it does! Go figure. :-(

The only remaining mystery is why the horizontal line between the grid-item3 and grid-item5 is showing with only 1 pixel wide, when all the others are showing 2px wide, as expected.
