On Special:Preferences>Search page, the descriptive text for each options should have the same font as other descriptive texts on other tabs
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Go to Special:Preferences>Search page
  2. Observe the font size of the descriptive text for an option such as the font size of the text "Corrects up to two typos. Resolves close redirects." for Default (Recommended) option
  3. Compare this font size with the font size of the text "Collects performance-related information for the current page and exposes it via a sidebar link. Only available in the main namespace." for the option Enable Performance inspector under the Special:Preferences>Editing tab

The font size observed on step 2 should be the same as the other one on step 3.

This would be a UI fix, not something that we'd take on -- but this might be good for a volunteer to update the font :)
