Comment:

 As @sabernhardt mentions above centering content shouldn't use the old
 `<center>` tag. Looking at w3.org, that tag is "entirely obsolete, and
 must not be used by authors". See https://www.w3.org/TR/2011/WD-
 html5-20110405/obsolete.html#non-conforming-features. Best would be to
 replace it with a div as described above.

 Closing as "wontfix". Please feel free to reopen if there is a reason to
 still support this tag despite the W3 standards.
