How to make CSS long column text widen grid instead of overflowing?

I'm currently refactoring one of my Firefox addons and I noticed an issue that arises with one of the translations: I've got a tab switch that is a CSS grid with 2 columns, both of which have a width of 50%. With shorter tab titles everything works as expected but longer titles overflow.

Instead, I want longer titles to just widen their respective columns. The tab-buttons shall be of the same width and the tab-button-container shall be of fit-content width. While it would be possible to just set an appropriate absolute value for the tab-button-container width, I don't want to unnecessarily waste any screen space.

Can you help me? Thank you!

html {
  overflow: hidden;
  padding: 0px;
  margin: 0px;
  border: none;
  width: max-content;
  height: fit-content;
  font-size: 14px;
}

  border: none;
}

main {
  padding-left: 20px;
  padding-right: 20px;
  width: max-content;
}

.tab-button-container {
  grid-template-columns: repeat(2, calc(50% - 2px));
  padding: 4px;
  column-gap: 4px;
  width: calc(100% - 4px);
  min-width: max-content;
