http://siteurl/wp-admin/about.php

​https://prnt.sc/tAhx_6P5RLl8

In WordPress 6.7.2, the welcome page (What's New section) displays inconsistent text formatting and alignment. The typography and spacing do not appear uniform across different sections. Specifically, the text inside the red-bordered section in the attached screenshot does not match the design consistency of the rest of the page.

Steps to Reproduce:
Log in to the WordPress admin panel.

Navigate to Dashboard → Updates → About WordPress (What's New tab).

Observe the text formatting and alignment under Welcome to WordPress 6.7.2.

Compare with the other sections to notice inconsistencies.

Expected Behavior:
Uniform typography and spacing across the page.

Consistent alignment of content blocks.

Actual Behavior:
The highlighted section has different spacing and typography compared to the rest of the page.

This results in an inconsistent user experience.

Hello @densinakum and thank you for the ticket,

We are about to release WordPress 6.8, so this is not something that is worth fixing in the 6.7 branch that close to 6.8 final release.
Instead, would you mind checking the about page available in WP 6.8 RC 1 to make sure the issue doesn't appear in the next release?
If you find any issue with WP 6.8 About Page, please report it in this ticket: #63025.
