 ### Fixed
   - Fixed another compatibility issue with Pandas 2.0, just affecting `px.*(line_close=True)` [[#4190](https://github.com/plotly/plotly.py/pull/4190)]
+  - Added some rounding to the `make_subplots` function to handle situations where the user-input specs cause the domain to exceed 1 by small amounts https://github.com/plotly/plotly.py/pull/4153
