There is a user agent (not necessarily a browser, so `browser-default` would be just incorrect), there are default values specific to each user agent, expanded `user-agent-default` would be too long, just `user-agent` (without the `-default` part) would probably be somewhat ambiguous/unclear (e.g. someone could expect that `user-agent` value means "put the user-agent string here"). > > `default-value` is acceptable too, though probably not as straightforward as `ua-default`. The problem with ua-default or any such thing is that it's only correct terminology for the effect when it's used in a user-level style sheet. If it's used in a author- or user-level style sheet, it does not return the value to the UA default value. The problem with 'default-value' is that it's inconsistent with the other global keywords, which are not called 'unset-value', 'initial-value', etc. ~fantasai
