How my mind models this: `start` and `end` are the two directions or ends of an axis; and `x`, `y`, `inline`, and `block` are four ways (two physical and two flow-relative) of specifying _which_ axis, so they appear in the same slot of the complete value name. But `x-start` as a whole is still a logical value that requires a context to resolve to a physical side. `self`, then, is a modifier for the logical value as a whole, changing which element's writing mode is used to resolve it. So yeah, I guess either structure works, and has its own kind of consistency, but IMO the prepended `self` modifier feels more natural and will be more author-friendly. So I hope the WG will agree to the change. -- GitHub Notification of comment by jfkthame Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/12749#issuecomment-3287874758 using your GitHub account -- Sent via github-notify-ml as configured in https://github.com/w3c/github-notify-ml-config
