Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-color-4] [css-color-5] inconsistent mentions of powerless components in `white`. (#8609)

But this should keep in mind that users have a specific expectation of `white`, `black` and `transparent`.

Users find it very odd that current implementations give green/pink when mixing `white` with `blue`. They did not describe a red color with 100% lightness, they described pure white.  
Same for `black` and `transparent`.

These cases are so common that they are part of literally every demo for color-mix I've seen.

----------

Powerlessness could be redefined so that hue only becomes powerless when both lightness and chroma meet specific thresholds?

`white` would have a powerless hue in `oklch` because lightness is 100% and chroma is 0.
