   Some hosting/plugin stacks (GeneratePress Premium's Elements module,
   GenerateBlocks, block-library base styles, etc.) can inject a more
   specific `a { text-decoration: underline }` rule that beats the
   plain `a` selector above. These components render underlines via
   `border-bottom`, not `text-decoration`, by design — this guarantees
   that regardless of what else is loaded. */
