Thanks for posting this issue. We reviewed it during today's Editor Bug Scrub. This issue has really always existed. The styling on post/page title is not an accurate reflection of the template that the page/post is using. To reduce this confusion, there are a number PRs that are exploring other ways of surfacing the post/page title in the Editor. Here is one example.
Since this is not actually a bug, I am going to close the issue. But hopefully, we will soon have a better way to handle post/page titles in the Editor that better reflects the layout of the template.
