Comment (by wildworks):
The reason is that the CSS variables are not being output in the Elementor
editor, but I think this ticket appears to point to a more underlying core
issue.
The new Admin color is based on CSS variables, which are enqueued by `wp-
base-styles`. Therefore, **the new Admin color shouldn't work on screens
where `wp-base-styles` isn't enqueued**.
I'm not sure why these CSS variables aren't being output in the Elementor
editor, but it might be dequeuing core CSS in some way.
It might be worth reviewing [https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-
develop/blob/e7537812bc2e8c1a6ccf8528bfe193c9c8ca57aa/src/wp-includes
/script-loader.php#L1554 the wp_default_styles() function] to see if there
are any other places where `wp-base-styles` should be added as a
dependency.
