So these are the two operations under considerations:

- Blue Line: Child’s `margin-inline-start` maps to `margin-right` which then inherits from parent’s `margin-right` (which is the parent’s `margin-inline-end`). This is what browsers currently do.
- Red Line: Child’s `margin-inline-start` (which is the child’s `margin-right`) inherits from parent’s `margin-inline-start` (which is matched with parent’s `margin-left`). This is what @r12a expects.

Keep in mind that properties are first cascaded (all together, logical and physical mixed and mapped by writing mode, latest declaration of a conflicting set winning), and then computed (which causes each matching pair to share a single computed value).
