Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-tables] fixed width distribution

Exactly. 

The interop difference is what happens when the rules in 3.9.3.1 do not apply because if you assign their preferred width to all columns, you still have excess width to distribute.

Firefox and Edge apply the same algorithm for excess width distribution in this case whether you are ```table-layout:auto``` or ```table-layout:fixed``` (this is the algorithm which will try to preserve percentage correctness most importantly, and pixel correctness secondly only: as such it will distribute the excess width to auto columns first; if not possible it will distribute to pixel columns; then if still not possible it will distribute it to percentage columns).

Webkit and Blink apply a different excess-width distribution algorithm in this case which attempts to preserve pixel values instead. This is what we would like to avoid to add to the spec.
