Comment (by wildworks):

 Thanks for working on this.

 > After applying the patch, the active tab is clearly visible and
 distinguishable from inactive tabs in High Contrast Mode.

 In Windows High Contrast Mode, a border is visually rendered even when
 `transparent` is specified for the border color. While
 [https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-develop/pull/12107/ PR 12107] does
 indeed differentiate border colors between active and inactive tabs,
 Windows High Contrast Mode is fundamentally used by users with low vision,
 color vision deficiencies, or light sensitivity to improve readability by
 increasing the contrast between text and background. Users relying on
 Windows High Contrast Mode may not necessarily be able to distinguish
 between active and inactive border colors. Therefore, I believe borders
 should not be rendered at all for inactive tabs.
