Maybe `inclusive` and `exclusive` instead of `inside` and `outside`? They are more academic terms, but are how you would actually describe a range that may or may not include the endpoints. E.g., for a transition from 0 to 10, `steps(5, inclusive)` divides the transition into five equal-sized steps between 0 and 10, inclusive. While `steps(5, exclusive)` divides the transition into five equal-sized steps, exclusive of the initial and final values. It doesn't help solve the naming confusion with `start` and `end` & people thinking that means "including the start/end value" instead of "making the switch at the start/end of the time interval". But I don't think it makes it much worse, either. PS, Whatever you call it, the outside/exclusive/clip option should only be restricted to n ≥ 1. I would expect that steps(1, exclusive) for a transition from 0 to 10 would mean that the value would be 5 for the length of the transition. -- GitHub Notification of comment by AmeliaBR Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/1301#issuecomment-309619231 using your GitHub account
