Re: [csswg-drafts] [mediaqueries] Media Feature: "reduce motion" user setting

That's very concrete. The examples I brought up where not endorsements
 either. They should just reflect the issue of having the 
scale/value-implication in the MQ feature name/variable.

A) It is not about straw men here, but where the whole set of 
user-preferences MQ features is heading towards. The current design 
seems to just concern the current issue at hand. I have not seen an 
answer to this yet:

> E.g. wouldn't that lead to the requirement to introduce a new MQ 
feature, vs just a new value, every time the value implications set by
 the MQ feature name make strong assumptions about the variable scale 
(non, ordinal, interval, ratio), default value and boolean association
 - that do not match a possible value (see above)?

B) From the other side of the argument: What is the really big benefit
 of having a default value that evaluates to boolean context?

To say it in other words: Are you certain that having the 
scale/value-implication within the mq-feature name _(which could 
potentially create a mess of mq-features, because feature names 
similar to "prefers-reduced-motion" transport too much information 
about the value sets as pointed out and explained above)_ is worth 
having a boolean default context?

If **you are certain** then `prefers-reduced-motion: no-preference | 
reduce` should work, despite that it is already painful in my mind to 
write `prefers-reduced-motion: disabled`.
