Really insightful. Typography is interesting because it does feel like some of those properties (like the specific five you called out) are very "core" to the look and feel and function of text, and some of them like `white-space` and `text-align` and `text-decoration` are instead things that you think of again each time you want to use that text style. In web terms, the former group are the sorts of things you'd set as CSS/SCSS variables or on high-level elements like `html` or `body`, and the latter are the sorts of things you'd use for much more scoped situations like `div.mySpecificUsage`. I think the crucial questions are: do we think we can adequately nail down the right set of those "core" properties in the first group? Do all people have approximately the same mental picture of what text properties are really core and which ones are things that you decide for each specific instance of text? If we can't answer "yes" very confidently to those two questions, I'm a lot more inclined to agree with you here. -- GitHub Notification of comment by TravisSpomer Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/design-tokens/community-group/issues/102#issuecomment-1021572359 using your GitHub account -- Sent via github-notify-ml as configured in https://github.com/w3c/github-notify-ml-config
