@counter-style's ability to do overriding is a special case that we *generally* don't want to repeat. Counter styles work that way because the set of predefined ones is somewhat large, potentially growing, and fairly arbitrary (so which ones are CSS-defined vs user-defined isn't very obvious); also very important, we didn't want to overly privilege some languages over others by allowing some to be written without dashes (the predefined ones) and other requiring dashes (the author-defined ones). None of these apply in this case (or in most cases) - we have a pretty small, fairly stable set of predefined things, and we don't have any particular cultural-sensitivity reasons to avoid privileging those predefined ones over author-defined ones. -- GitHub Notification of comment by tabatkins Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/9660#issuecomment-1836755978 using your GitHub account -- Sent via github-notify-ml as configured in https://github.com/w3c/github-notify-ml-config
