Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-fonts-4][css-nesting] Nesting of @supports inside @font-face and font technology feature queries (#6520)

Please note that the TAG feedback was not "You **must** use `@supports`" but "Please exhaust the possibility of using existing mechanisms for feature support before introducing a new one" ([src](https://github.com/w3ctag/design-reviews/issues/666#issuecomment-901220221)). The TAG does not enforce any particular design, that is not the point of a design review.

At this point, the issue has been discussed thoroughly in the CSS WG, and there are some notable practical advantages to an inline syntax. Furthermore, a list of keywords is not a microsyntax, otherwise half of CSS properties would be using microsyntaxes. The worst of all worlds is the current state of specs, with two *different* syntaxes for querying support for font technology, this is one we should move away from as soon as possible. Personally I think what @fantasai suggests is reasonable, assuming it's just a list of keywords and nothing else.
