Elsewhere in CSS, values with specific meaning are set with their own properties. There are exceptions, with reasons, just in this case I don't think the benefit is strong enough to justify doing things differently.

This is a change that needs a discussion and a vote at F2F, so don't spend to much time arguing here.....

Probably. For grid however, it would be completely scoped to grid, so most of the issues I raised on "width:flex()" don't apply
