Comment:
I don't see this CSS being generated, at least with Twenty Twenty-Five
active. The closest thing I see is in `STYLE#global-styles-inline-css`:
{{{#!css
a:where(:not(.wp-element-button)){color: currentColor;text-decoration:
underline;}
}}}
I see the same in v6.8.3.
Is your theme a block theme or classic theme? If you could provide a
sample theme to reproduce the issue that would be helpful.
