My point was that some use-cases involve eg `--prop1: calc(parent(--prop1) + 1)` – without a second property being involved. In that case, we want to access the parent value of `--prop1`, even though it will not inherit. 

To your other point, I think that's why @LeaVerou [suggested limiting this to custom properties](https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/2864#issuecomment-1408740179) for now.
