CSS: TheoremLike/em

[Jeremy Sylvestre]

An em inside a TheoremLike is being styled as both italic and bold. This is a holdover from when all of the text inside a TheoremLike was italicized, and then bold was added to any em inside of that to make it stand out from the surrounding text.

Current CSS has text inside TheoremLike upright, so maybe the rule adding bold to TheoremLike/em should be removed? Otherwise there would be no distinction between em and alert within the text of a TheoremLike. (Just on general principle; rest assured that I am not authoring theorems that are littered with both ems and alerts.)

At first blush, maybe text of a #theorem should be italic? I don't recall
discussing a change, and a lot of CSS has been changed/overhauled recently.

It was supposed to be that theorems had italics but not bold.

If something else happened, that seems like an unintended side-effect.

It looks like I moved italics for theorem/em into too narrow a scope in the big CSS refactor back in 2024 - they currently only appear in the tacoma theme.

I'll PR moving it up to where it will be picked up by all themes.

Theme salem also has this behaviour.

And another quick fix from Andrew. Thanks!
