Comment (by sabernhardt):

 I should have noticed a problem with increasing the CSS specificity.

 The Core styles can work with the `.wp-login-logo` class when `.login` is
 removed, so I made [attachment:"62410.diff"] to consider that. With the
 change, the specificity would be one element lower than the `.login h1`
 selectors.

 Then the alternative patch adds a `body` element to **match** the
 specificity level those rules had in earlier versions. Note that printing
 custom styles with `.login h1 a` //before// the `login.css` stylesheet
 would not work with [attachment:"62410.alt.diff"], but it would not have
 worked with WordPress 6.6 either.

 The Codex is very outdated, but maybe it would be worth adding the current
 selector to the list in the article's example:
 `#login h1 a, .login h1 a, .login .wp-login-logo a {`
 (and maybe rewriting the snippet to use `wp_add_inline_style( 'login',
 $css );` instead of printing a `style` tag in an enqueue hook)
