> nobody gets confused Well, I have seen CSS newbies confused because `<div><p><span>` was affected by `div span` styles, turns out they thought it meant `div > span`. I suspect this may be happening in a non-negligible amount of cases, it's just that using the descendant combinator instead of the child one is usually harmless, so it goes unnoticed. I think that making the descendant combinator be a space (and thus the default one) was a mistake, and your proposal could produce similar confusions. I don't like having default combinators, since different people can have different intuitions about what the default should be. But well, maybe I should accept that it's a lost battle, your proposal is at least consistent with the current behavior. -- GitHub Notification of comment by Loirooriol Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/5738#issuecomment-731468583 using your GitHub account -- Sent via github-notify-ml as configured in https://github.com/w3c/github-notify-ml-configReceived on Saturday, 21 November 2020 00:05:46 UTC
