 The appearance of PullQuote blocks is not working correctly in Twenty-
 Sixteen. Though there are many options like semi-bold, medium, italic,
 etc. it seems only two things get applied no matter what I choose. It's
 either normal, bold or extra bold. And the extra bold is just as same as
 Black. No changes with any kind of italic.

 Steps to reproduce the issue:-
 1. Activate Twenty Sixteen theme.
 1. Choose Pullquote block.
 1. Write something in Citation
 1. Change the appearance

Comment:

 GB11610 started to deprecate the Pullquote block for WordPress 7.0, so it
 might not be worth editing Twenty Sixteen's CSS (much) for the block at
 this time. However, the citation incorrectly appears italicized in the
 editor, and the `normal` value (on the front) is redundant.

 [43799] set the `font-style` to an invalid `none` value on the front and
 `italic` in the editor. [52004] then corrected the value to `normal`, but
 `block-library/theme.css` has set the font-style to `normal` since
 WordPress 5.0 (GB9763).

 Both patches remove the `font-style` rule, and [attachment:"60012.match-
 italic.diff"] also would reflect the choice of an Italic Appearance option
 in the citation.
