> Yes, simplicity (and ease of authoring) is a core goal of CSS. It appears that I am losing this argument, but the point of it is to do just as you have said above : go for simplicity and ease of authoring. Can you please try and justify why it is "easier to author" via "content-box" than "border-box" ? I believe it is dramatically easier to use "border-box". I will even dare to say that the fact that IE4/IE5/NN4 have implemented "border-box" by default helps to prove my point. Millions of developers are used to using it this way. Why change it?
