I asked a couple people on chat and one said they supported it, so I decided to interpret that as unanimous harmonious agreement and made the change. Being as it's only one line on one page, I figured it was anything but harmful, unlike most of my past projects which involved large overhaul of half the wiki.

As for the actual rationale, I feel that if superusers are expected to be treated like any other user, I think name highlighting undermines that philosophy by blatantly presenting "hey, my name is a different color, so I have authority." If someone needs to find a superuser, the search box is a click away.
