I'm not sure why, but I haven't been able to reproduce the original behavior. I tried using Chrome, Firefox, Safari with TT2 and TT3, but for some reason I couldn't see the left and right borders. The fix makes sense, though. |
It may be a Chrome issue... are you on Safari? |
No, I use Chrome, but I ran the That said, I know what happened: I was looking at the separators in the Post editor. I can see the original problem in the Site editor. And once I apply your fix, I see nice-looking separators. |

What?
By default, the
hr
tag is styled to appear inset by the browser. The browser does this by painting 4 different border colors. For block themes that style the Separator block using theme.json, usually just the color or border width is styled, and it looks good when small:But if we zoom in, we can see something is off:
