Icon Debris on Hover

I noticed when I didn't have the flex-grow transition property set for my navigation list items, when my icons slide in they leave behind a trail of "debris". Why is this? What causes this?

When I added the flex-grow transition it solved the problem, but what if I don't want any flex-grow?

Yeah that screenshot is from Chrome. The issue also occurs in Safari. In Firefox, however, the transitions were smooth and there was no debris occurring. I wonder why this is...

Is that screenshot from Chrome? I've experience a similar issue after applying a transform transition.

Does the issue occur in other browsers?
