Can someone explain to me why turning on "high contrast dark theme" in Claude Code moves user chat bubbles from the right to the left?

Positive users approve the Claude Code high contrast theme's chat bubble shift as a future standard, while negative users criticize the broken layout, vibe coding, poor community-driven QA, and Anthropic's low accessibility priority.

@theo shipping a proprietary font called "Anthropic Sans" while the layout breaks when you flip a contrast toggle is a very specific kind of confidence

@theo Probably because accessibility is not really a priority for Anthropic
