It seems a bit counter intuitive and conflicting with: "The logical NOT can be expressed through the ‘not’ keyword. The presence of the keyword ‘not’ at the beginning of the media query negates the result. I.e., if the media query had been true without the ‘not’ keyword it will become false, and vice versa." I stumpled upon this while debugging a website stating that we (tested with Chrome) didn't support the monochrome media query. Maybe we should just fix the grammar?
