Because, as I said, "computed value" and "serialization" have nothing directly to do with each other. The serialization of the value is *not* specified in the propdef table; it's implicitly specified in CSSOM as the shortest equivalent serialization that'll produce the same value. The computed value is a pair of values. We can operate on that in spec text, asking what the horizontal background-repeat is, versus the vertical background-repeat. This avoids us having to go thru contortions in spec text to reproduce the effects of parsing, like "do X if the vertical repeat is Y, or if it's unspecified and the horizontal repeat is Y". -- GitHub Notification of comment by tabatkins Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/1488#issuecomment-305593545 using your GitHub account
