You wrote that CSS originally does not specify that the default is to cut through descenders. That means that different browsers are free to do what they wish, no? So, your browser happened to choose to cut through descenders while still being standard conformant for many years. That forms a culture for you. Now come to think about this: if every browser had chosen to not cut through descenders, would you had any problem with the current CSS strengthening the default to not cut through descenders? -- Best regards, Tadeus
