I feel like the styles for code elements in paragraphs read pretty well already, so should be fine as they are:

To my :eyes:, they’re already a reasonably appropriate font-size, and have enough of a margin between the word boundaries. The real issue here I think is confined to the code elements within the `.note` containers, where normal text is scaled down and colored appropriately, but code elements got left out of the equation in the initial design I did.
