Special:UserLogin createaccount link looks unstyled when already logged in
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

If you're already logged in and request the Special:UserLogin special page, you'll get something like this:

while it should look like:

Take a look at the "Create another account" link, it looks a bit misplaced and unstyled.

I always assumed that was intentional, to make the link more silent for logged-in users.

Yeah, it was definitely done intentionally. But it should probably still be centered and the same color as other links.
