Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-cascade-5] Allow authors to explicitly place unlayered styles in the cascade layer order (#6323)

Yeah, @bramus your argument is exactly the one that took us back and forth on this a few times - but I think Tab is right that once we accept `there's no dividing line to draw in terms of "enhancement"`, then there are several advantages to making it so 1) the behavior is simple and consistent for everyone 2) a primary use-case is lowering priority of tools.

I also like that the result of that decision (layers decrease importance) acts to push against the common assumption that _this will escalate things_ by making everything more and more important.

In any case, we need a good polyfill to offer people. OddBird is [starting to look into this](https://github.com/oddbird/cascade-layers-polyfill), but it's not very far along yet. Always open to contributions (or alternative approaches).
