dbaron has just created a new issue for https://github.com/w3c/css-houdini-drafts:

== [css-typed-om] CSSPositionValues should be created as a function of what the property accepts ==
[CSSPositionValue normalization](https://drafts.css-houdini.org/css-typed-om-1/#positionvalue-normalization) begins with:

> If the provided value matches the &lt;position> production, then a CSSPositionValue is constructed with x and y components determined via the following process.

This seems to imply that `CSSPositionValue`s are created as a function of the syntax that happens to be present (e.g., for 'border-width: 3px 4px`) rather than as a function of the syntax that the property accepts.  It should be specified like the other value types, in terms of the syntax that the property accepts.
