Sign In button looks funny

The Sign In button on the homepage looks a little bit bolder than the other text on the header bar, and in my opinion, it looks a little awkward. Just thought I'd state my opinion.

Sign In button looks funny

no
it seems to be bold or a different font-family i'll see if the console will reveal it
EDIT:
Looked at the console so far i have found the <span> sign in </span> there is no class or id so i must assume that it is either being decided by one of the parent elements or all the other buttons are in a specified font and they forgot to specify it on the button.
will see if i can peek into the css
FINAL EDIT:

CSS file wrote:

#topnav ul.account-nav>li>span {
color: #fff;
font-weight: bold;
font-size: 15px;
I wonder who set it to bold?

There were some changes made to the sign in buttons lately. Is it really that awkward? ^^;

Yes, it is, and I would like to inquire as to the perceived advantages of having the button use different formatting from the rest of the menu.

So it can be more noticeable on the menu bar.
