> it's hard to visually parse a color consisting of all percentages. Nothing but the alpha can be a percentage. The rest are numbers. > And imho percentages are the most natural way to represent a range between 0 and 1, so they should be comfortable to use for all of the color coordinates. The color coordinates aren't necessarily 0-1. That's common, but there's nothing requiring that. They're not appropriate to be percentages. > I was thinking of something along these lines, There's no need for any of those slashes; they serve no purpose for disambiguation. And there's no need for a comma separating the fallback from the rest, for the same reason. color() is also allowed in fallback, intentionally - you can fallback to a different colorspace. > Is it when a color profile can't be used because it doesn't fit within the gamut of the device? No, it's for when a color profile is invalid or unknown. Color profiles already define how to scale themselves down to fit smaller gamuts. -- GitHub Notification of comment by tabatkins Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/266#issuecomment-232562284 using your GitHub account
