The first prototype used a pseudo-class. I think the discussion starting from https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/8174#issuecomment-1451132927 may be informative as to how we ended up with the at-rule. I think one of the big reasons to move away from that was that it was really confusing what things like `div:initial p` would mean and whether there was a reasonable way to make it mean something that matched expectations for what authors of CSS would expect it to mean. I agree that we ended up with a solution that requires a bunch of repetition that I'm not happy about. I wonder if a pseudo-element might have been a better balance. That was the one of the three things discussed that never got prototyped... -- GitHub Notification of comment by dbaron Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/10356#issuecomment-2121158693 using your GitHub account -- Sent via github-notify-ml as configured in https://github.com/w3c/github-notify-ml-config
