Does anyone know why these variables can't or should be in the > <head>, before <style>? 1. It makes a CSS feature use the HTML syntax. 2. It closes door on using external file for breakpoints ever (unless you like having duplicate features). For example HTTP/2 Push could make external stylesheet available before HTML is parsed. That would be the holy grail - a single place for authors to manage breakpoints and compatibility with the preload scanner. 3. Not all applications need preload scanner. For example app.ft.com is a JS-based offline app. It needs responsive images, but not preload scanner. It would be shame if it had to use worse syntax and less maintainable solution to enable optimization it does not need. -- regards, Kornel
