Comment:

 I think assigning the color only to the Primary and Footer widget areas
 would have been a better choice four years ago, when blocks were
 introduced to widgets.
 {{{
 .primary-sidebar .wp-block-latest-comments__comment-meta a,
 .footer-sidebar .wp-block-latest-comments__comment-meta a {
         color: #fff;
 }
 }}}

 However, a site with a child theme can register an extra widget area. For
 that situation, PR 8888 expects that any custom sidebar is against a dark
 background, does not include a Latest Comments widget, and/or already has
 custom styles to fix the text color. The patch only excludes the Content
 Sidebar:
 {{{
 .widget-area:where(:not(.content-sidebar)) .wp-block-latest-
 comments__comment-meta a {
         color: #fff;
 }
 }}}
