Allowing us to simply move it to the left would fix these issues entirely

Thanks for the report however we have no plans to do anything with this. Scales above 100% are only intended for use on displays that have the physical space to show the additional size. If you run into issues like this, the solution is to reduce the scale back to 100%. We already have issues making the GUI work at native 100% on 1920x1080 and simply can't make it work at increasingly higher scales on every screen size.

There is another issue with the scaling and size of the engine status window that I need to bring to your attention.

On my ultra-wide 3440x1440 screen (IMO this will soon be a standard in gaming) the game by default sets the UI scaling to 125%, so some engine window details are not visible by default.

On the other hand, I wouldn't be able to play the game at 100%, UI gets too small. So I still think something should be done with the engine status window, it should at least work on default (125%) settings.

Yes, this is a case we still haven't found a nice solution for at default screen resolutions.
