When the target language is different from the current one, you chose to display it as "(Language)". Do you think it should be styled to be less prominent?

https://www.w3.org/International/questions/qa-link-lang suggests some CSS, that, despite not being accessible (at least because of the contrast ratio), makes that less "in your face". It also suggests adding the language through CSS content rather than in the markup, but I don't know what are the implications of one or the other.
