Re: [csswg-drafts] Alternate masonry path forward (#9041)

@rachelandrew, thank you for your response!

It seems I misunderstood your point about the Chrome blog. Apologies for that—I wanted to express that, based on my review of the comparison of the two syntaxes in the Chrome blog, I didn't notice any strange CSS hacks or complexities when using the Grid syntax.

While I understand that some who support `display: masonry;` claim that the current Grid system is "too complex!" they often don't specifically explain what aspects of Grid are confusing for beginners or what exact part of the Grid specification is causing them trouble.

As for the "complexity of grid," I think that what many might find challenging is not the layout system itself, but rather things like the `fr` unit and how functions like `min()`, `max()` and `minmax()` are used together to create responsive designs. These advanced techniques may be the real points of confusion for newcomers, rather than the Grid system as a whole.

Regarding your point about the lack of complaints from developers on Firefox Nightly or Safari Technology Preview due to the experimental nature of the implementation, I agree that usage is currently limited.
