Comment (by afercia):

 @johnjamesjacoby thanks again. We agree to disagree then 😁A better
 knowledge of the background for these visual changes would probably help
 understand.

 This 1 pixel difference in the border-radius between selects/buttons vs.
 input fields comes from Gutenberg. It's now implemented in core after
 feedback from the design team. As you're an experienced core contributor
 and you follow core development closely, you may know that I'm not in the
 design team. I think your concerns would be better addressed asking the
 design team.

 > This specific CSS is completely new for WordPress 5.3. S

 Nope :) It's in Gutenberg since several months now. Unless you want to
 consider Gutenberg something that is "not WordPress", stating that this
 CSS is completely new is not correct.

 Personally, I care about consistency across the WordPress admin. I'd like
 to see the same, consistent, simple, predictable form controls styling
 everywhere. Then, if borders are rounded, squared, or ''à pois'' I
 honestly don't mind as long as form controls are accessible :)

 Honestly, I'm a bit tired to have to defend the design team decisions when
 no one from the design team is following or even showing any interest.
 However, once again: please consider these are design changes so please
 direct your concerns to the design team.
