Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-values] Radians considered useless without π

I feel like we are repeating ourselves, so just this one more time.

The proposed benefit is getting rid of the irrational factor of π in `rad`, not the integer factor 2 in `turn`. 

I completely agree that tau-based math would be simpler than pi, but that is not what real authors are used to nor what calculators or trigonometric lookup tables are designed to. Nobody will (want to) change their mental model of angles for CSS. (`turn` is already perfect for rotations, however.)
