> Fwiw it's the same reason we have `appearance: base-select;` not `appearance: base` because we could put as many warnings in dev tools, specs and MDN as we want but someone would write the below CSS in a reset somewhere, people would use that widely, and then break the entire future compat story for anything we try to do. OK, I’m convinced by this argument. Closing my question as “Answered”. > This sort of context-sensitivity is a _very bad_ thing to try and do, as it opens up a _ton_ of questions about how things like :is()/:not()/etc work. I see why we would not want to open that can of worms. -- GitHub Notification of comment by bramus Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/11394#issuecomment-2705920773 using your GitHub account -- Sent via github-notify-ml as configured in https://github.com/w3c/github-notify-ml-config
