Wouldn't it just 🤩

this looks like it'd be darn tasty for some Design Systems work…

get sizes, colours, spacing, motion values from the parent and tweak them locally (e.g. ⁠--card-gap: calc(inherit(--gap) * 0.75)). Cleaner (fewer) tokens, fewer overrides, and smarter, context-aware components.

Yes!
