All of those are doing math in raw numbers, where you do indeed need an actual 3.14 (or 6.28 if you want...) to do the math with. Thus, having a $pi or pi() makes perfect sense for them. The CSS functions don't need that, since they have a unitted value and so you can just do your math in tauradians. Piradians would make the formulas accord to what you see in math textbooks slightly better, sure, but until we see people using these functions and complaining about it, we won't worry about adding a new "half-turn" unit. -- GitHub Notification of comment by tabatkins Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/309#issuecomment-495411512 using your GitHub account
