Can that not be a recommendation? I would hate to have to explain the
difference between these:
font-weight: normal
font-weight: initial
font-weight: inherit
font-weight: default
Keyword overload, and the "default" in particular has a distinctly
unhelpful meaning. I would rather have default be used for what initial is
currently used for, but if initial is already too entrenched in CSS
terminology perhaps that is not possible.
