Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-inline-3] Improve illustrations for text edges (#11364)

@valler totally get where you're coming from, my patience has worn thin after waiting 20 years for design basics like `leading`.

**My 2 cents...**
- We don't use the term `leading` if it doesn't do what `leading` does (adjusts the space between lines)
- We don't introduce made-up terms like `half-leading`, when `leading` doesn't even work like `leading`

**The bottom line**
Whatever happens, we get a solution to adjust the spacing between lines, without changing the visual position of text.

To me, the human race has already solved this issue, it's  called `leading`. 

But when I read through the specs, proposals and comments, I worry the beautiful simplicity of `leading` has been lost.
