That would be an incredible gain in complexity, for the benefit that you can avoid minting a few extra names. Many programming languages, like Python, don't even support that kind of feature. (They instead delegate that to the single function's implementation to sort out on its own, albeit with full programming-language features to do so.) As much as we're continually muddying the waters of "is CSS a programming language", our goal is not, in any meaningful way, to make CSS the equal of "real" programming languages. These sorts of new abstraction facilities are in service of particular goals, plugging holes that people are currently working around. I'm gonna go ahead and reject this at editor's discretion. ^_^ -- GitHub Notification of comment by tabatkins Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/12493#issuecomment-3084784030 using your GitHub account -- Sent via github-notify-ml as configured in https://github.com/w3c/github-notify-ml-config
