Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-anchor-position-1] Bikeshed name of `inset-area` (#10209)

> I believe the original naming of `inset-area` came from when the spec used to make `inset-area` reset the `inset` values to `anchor(...)`, where the name made sense, but it no longer makes sense with the current definition.

I thought it came from the fact that you were picking an **area** within the **inset-** modified-containing-block? In terms of explaining what this property does for developers, I actually think it's pretty important to tie it to `inset`s, so they know it lives within the IMCB. Calling it `position-area` feels more confusing actually.
