I think some of these are due to missing CSS rules in Varia or the child themes. @ramonjd has a PR for addressing Stratford in https://github.com/Automattic/themes/pull/2551, but I'm wondering if that same change needs to happen higher up the chain in Varia 🤔

I took a poke around and saw that there is a rebuild-child-themes script in the pub/varia directory. 🤞 we can change it in one place and recompile.

I think this would be best handled by theme team since it affects current themes and live sites. @scruffian what do you think?

[scruffian]

Yeah lets make this change in Varia and rebuild the children. Let me know if you need any help with this.

[simison]

@scruffian Yeah, was hoping if Theme-folks could take this whole fix over?

[scruffian]

Ok, added to the backlog. Not sure when we'll get to it...
