That's a good point. I don't know when I am ever expected to use it, or what it is good for. Why would I ever write 'padding:initial' instead of 'padding:0'? It's just more typing, with possibly less certain results if I don't know the initial value and don't want to look it up. Now if there was a keyword to reset an element to what the UA stylesheet had for it, that could be useful.
