Why would Stack Overflow code blocks (only) suddenly be displayed in italics?

Okay, it's not April 1st, so the new fonts must be serious. I'd like to express a like or dislike of the new fonts to those who decide such things without starting a flame war. Or is there an option to customize them from the browser?

EditApologies, the former title/question about font feedback is no longer correct. This seems to be a Windows system change specific to my pc, but also seems to only affect SO/SE code blocks only (on Chrome and Edge) and nothing else!

EditOkay, I did search first, I promise, but did not see the posts on Meta Stack Exchange about the May 2021 font change, but that's not what this is. Does however seem from your comments that this is something I'm seeing, not anyone else. The 'pre' or 'code' fonts (even as I type this) are all italic, almost a Comic Sans Mono (edit...it's really Cascadia Mono). Nothing about the new fonts that people have taken images of. So my browser is set (as always has been) to show 'fixed width' as Consolas. And frankly Git and MSDN all show code correctly, leading me to believe this is something specific to the SO site. Any ideas?
