 > Specifically:
 > * Border color (for wrappers, boxes, sidebars, & fields) closely match
 text color (`#8c8f94` vs `#646970` and `#1d2327`)
 > * Input/select/radio/check backgrounds match the body background
 (`#fff`)
 > * Button backgrounds are so lightly grey they may as well be white
 (`#f0f0f1` vs `#fff`)
 > * Disabled form elements have more visual emphasis than enabled ones
 (`#f0f0f1` vs `#fff`)
 > * Privacy/Site Health are now white-top, white-tabs, white-body (`#fff`)
 > * Even more oddly, every-other list-table row is emphasized for no real
 reason (`#f6f7f7`)
 > * Currently active plugins really stand out now (blue: `#f0f6fc`)
 > * Block widgets still have grey background (`#f0f0f0` – why not
 `#f0f0f1` 😅)
 > * Old-style H2 tabs still have grey backgrounds (Appearance > Menus,
 BuddyPress/bbPress, `#f0f0f1`)

 Thanks for the detailed synthesis! While I don't think text matching
 border colors is really annoying, you clearly pointed out many really
 important points to improve.
