CKEditor 5 + Full HTML prevents the child combinator CSS selector to be used in <style>

Problem/Motivation

The site administrators are using the CKEditor 5 FULL HTML text format to provide custom stylings using tags with the source editing. But when the css is used with the '>' syntax, ex:

<style type="text/css">
.sections > h2 {
</style>

the > symbol (the child combinator selector: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/Child_combinator) gets replaced into html entities and shown as

<style type="text/css">
.sections &gt; h2 {
</style>

This is checked with the latest 10.1.5 version. We checked by unchecking the filter "Correct faulty and chopped off HTML" filter but still able to reproduce this issue.
