The following bug has been logged on the website:

Bug reference: 16640
Logged by: Valentin Baert
Email address: valentin.baert@everysens.com
PostgreSQL version: 13.0
Operating system: Linux Mint 20
Description:

Hello,
I have noticed that in the documentation of Postgresql 13 on the website for
example at https://www.postgresql.org/docs/13/functions-json.html the table
are all messed up.
Compared to the same table in the previous version
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/12/functions-json.html
It has probably already been reported, but I'm not sure how to check for old
issues, so just in case.
Thanks
Valentin

This was an intentional change, made in order to better fit wide content.

I didn't notice it before - is there any change this change could be
rolled back?

Previous layout makes the information trivial to see and easy to diff
visually between doc versions.

New version, in my opinion, is much worse when it comes to readability.
