Comment (by sabernhardt):

 The icon is larger, and the 24px `line-height` pushes the icon down. PR
 10998 keeps the larger font size but adjusts other dimensions for vertical
 alignment.

 In the Bulk Edit settings for pages, the Author, Parent, and Template
 input fields already were closer together than Comments and Status in
 WordPress 6.9. Switching the labels' `.2em 0` margin to padding
 theoretically could make it more consistent, but then the Tags `textarea`
 in Quick Edit for posts would be noticeably lower.

 I also tried increasing the `line-height` for labels from 2.5 to 3, but
 that causes new alignment issues (with fields such as "or" and the Private
 checkbox next to the post password). The large `line-height` is already
 unfriendly when the label text is wider than 6em and needs to wrap to the
 next line (for example, in French).
