Description text is same size as TextColumn

Hi, Im under the impression that a description text should be smaller than the text of the TextColumn component. Am I right? Because in my app it renders at the same size: text-sm. Am I doing something wrong?

TextColumn::make('publish_at')
    ->since()
    ->description(function(Article $article): string {
        if (!$article->publish_at) {
            return '';
        }
        
        if ($article->publish_at->isFuture()) {
            return 'Publish on ' . $article->publish_at->format('d M Y - H:m');
        }
        
        if ($article->publish_at->isPast()) {
            return 'Published on ' . $article->publish_at->format('d M Y - H:m');
        }
        
        return '';
    })

TextColumn::make('publish_at')
    ->since()
    ->description(function(Article $article): string {
        if (!$article->publish_at) {
            return '';
        }
        
        if ($article->publish_at->isFuture()) {
            return 'Publish on ' . $article->publish_at->format('d M Y - H:m');
        }
        
        if ($article->publish_at->isPast()) {
            return 'Published on ' . $article->publish_at->format('d M Y - H:m');
        }
        
        return '';
    })

It has a lighter color though. So I guess that's the intended styling for descriptions.

is since fn available for Forms\Components\TextInput? or there is something similar? edit: i do something like this now:

->hint(fn (string $state): string => Carbon::make($state)->diffForHumans())

->hint(fn (string $state): string => Carbon::make($state)->diffForHumans())

Looks good to me.

It's just that, I hope I'm not crazy but, I clearly see it as smaller text in the docs.

And same thing in the series about Filament on Laracasts...

Im guessing it's just an illusion, as the code for it on text-column.blade.php:287 is text-sm, like for the regular text
