Hi,
Both levels have the same paragraph at the end of section 2:
> To avoid circular dependencies, it is never necessary to apply the
> style sheet in order to evaluate expressions. For example, the aspect
> ratio of a printed document may be influenced by a style sheet, but
> expressions involving ‘device-aspect-ratio’ will be based on the
> default aspect ratio of the user agent.
This is not the case anymore. @viewport rules do influence MQs:
http://dev.w3.org/csswg/css-device-adapt/#media-queries
We’re discussing doing something similar in css3-page, which would make
even the example quoted above wrong.
At least the word "never" needs to be changed in Level 4, but I would be
in favor of rewriting the whole paragraph and errata the Level 3 REC.
Proposed wording:
Unless otherwise specified, it is not necessary to apply
stylesheets in order to evaluate expressions.
<p class=note>Note: CSS Device Adaptation [[CSS-DEVICE-ADAPT]]]
defines how '@viewport' rules interact with Media Queries.
