The point isn't to list properties with no effect, but to list *all* of the properties that *do* have an effect - not only those that happen to be overridden at the most specific level of the hierarchy. That is a middle ground between what's currently being done, and listing absolutely every property. But one might well also ask, if there are useless properties with no effect, then why are there useless properties with no effect, and isn't the fact that such properties exist a much bigger problem than whether they should be listed in the document? -- Matthew Skala msk...@ansuz.sooke.bc.ca People before tribes. https://ansuz.sooke.bc.ca/
