Azure Devops Pipeline logs appear to be truncating tables

When using a Run Powershell on Target Machine task in a pipeline job the logs are truncating ouput in tables. This happens even when the collum widths are explicitly set.

This is clearly not a limit that the overall logs have with display width as other lines in the same log are much longer:

The above log is generated with the following command:

get-item -path env:\* | Format-Table -Property @{n="Hostname";e={$env:computername}; width=15},@{ e='Name'; width=35}, @{ e='value'; width=120}

For Example, the "Value" column is being truncated for the "Path" entry well before the 120 character limit.

The command formats as expected when run directly on a computer using powershell or when run remotely in powershell via Invoke-Command.

How do I get the pipeline log to display the table as intended?
