PR Summary

Low Risk
Low risk UI-only change that adjusts selection styling in ShortInput without affecting data flow or logic.

Overview
Reverts the selection:text-transparent Tailwind class on the ShortInput text field so selected text is no longer forced transparent while the input uses the overlay formatting/masking behavior.

Greptile Summary

This PR reverts #4318 by removing the selection:text-transparent Tailwind modifier from the ShortInput component's <Input> className. The change is a single-line removal and the team has explicitly acknowledged the selection-visibility trade-off as acceptable while a more holistic overlay/selection solution is planned.

Confidence Score: 5/5

Safe to merge — minimal single-line revert with explicit team acknowledgment of the trade-off.

No P0 or P1 findings. The only concern (selection visibility flash) was raised in a previous thread and signed off by a senior developer as intentional, with a plan to address it holistically. The change itself is correct and scoped.

No files require special attention.
