Comment:

 **Not** centering the text of the Latest Posts block may have been
 intentional.
 [https://github.com/WordPress/twentynineteen/commit/6d5fc969ea571b2b01e2d47eec749ce4847ffe54
 PR 684] created a separate ruleset for Categories and Archives blocks,
 though adding an `.aligncenter` rule for all three blocks would have been
 easier.

 A comment on the related issue

 discouraged centering text]:
 > I think the block itself should be centered, not the individual lines.
 Centered text is difficult to read, and it destroys the hierarchy of the
 list structure.

 If that change is worth making on the front end, then the editor styles
 fix for the Latest Posts block could be combined with the Archives and
 Categories List blocks (like in PR 6549, instead of the patch on #61186).
