This is a pretty common expectation but as outlined in in #8961 isn't really right. We considered this a long time ago but it felt too against the grain at the time. These days though very UI-forward applications like [Linear](https://linear.app/) are using the default cursor for buttons and I think this trend will continue as more people become aware that `cursor: pointer` is meant for links. Let's update our defaults here to help nudge people in this direction and make it more common. If people want to change this in their own apps, it's just a line or two of CSS to add to their projects.

@thecrypticace why the commit of this pr has been reverted? |

Ah because we wanted to remove it to push out 3.1.7 and when I reverted the commit I forgot to update the Changelog to put it in the "unreleased" section. Sorry about that. |

Ok thanks for clarifying 🙏 |
