Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-values] Re-adding min() and max()?

I believe we can't add angle brackets for some syntax reason, which is
 why we used `min-` and `max-` in media queries. But even if we could,
 your proposed syntax does not look more clear to me at all, and I 
don't understand why it would only be usable within `calc()`, there's 
no reason to not allow it bare. Furthermore, I don't think the other 
operators are more clear either, both to non-programmers and 
programmers alike, for different reasons. We don't need more ASCII art
 in CSS. And the modulo operator being `%` is a huge mistake IMO, 
since `%` has a clearly defined role in language, which is completely 
different than modulo.
