Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-color-5] How should negative percentages behave in color-mix()? (#6047)

> Complexity for whom?

I think for the authors. If values outside of [0...100] are simply invalid and thus clipped, that simplifies the cognitive model of `color-mix`

Definition from Oxford Languages of mix:

1. *verb*: "combine or put together to form one substance or mass."
2. *noun*: "two or more different qualities, things, or people placed, combined, or considered together."

These definitions supports the idea that `color-mix` is about positive combination
