> Adding support for an alpha sub-value for the color token type, in my opinion, has neither a negative or positive impact on the human readability/maintainability of the spec. It is solely about providing a mechanism for composing a color token with either a tokenized or arbitrary alpha value. This is a pattern that designers and design systems use with regularity - and, removing the tokenization aspect, a pattern that all major design tools have long supported. I meant that at its core a structured data format enables more use cases. Having a separate `alpha` field works for your case, having units separate from values works for others. But the shared principle is that avoiding microsyntax and encodings has specific benefits. -- GitHub Notification of comment by romainmenke Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/design-tokens/community-group/issues/137#issuecomment-1281955178 using your GitHub account -- Sent via github-notify-ml as configured in https://github.com/w3c/github-notify-ml-config
