Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-grid-3] if using `display` we should provide examples for `inline grid-lanes`, and include the `inline-grid-lanes` legacy fallback (#10961)

The problem is, there is no reason to favor the multi-keyword syntax. It's not shorter, and it doesn't provide any benefit as far as I know. Not having `inline-grid-lanes` would be a good reason to favor it: consistency in a codebase, and even if one doesn't use grid lanes, future-proofing against inconsistencies (since every possibility can be expressed with multi-keyword but not with single-keyword).

Anyway, looks like the ship might have sailed.
