Google Outlines

Google is now testing rounded outlines around some of its search result snippet features. This includes around the snippets in the local pack and also knowledge panels.

I do wonder if this is a variation of the snippet background highlights from the other day.

This was first spotted by Jean-Sébastien Girard who posted this screenshot on X:

Then Gagan Ghotra posted this for images in the knowledge panels on X:

I am not sure I like these but what do you all think?
