So I have spent a while looking at this change and playing with it.  It
hasn't really changed my feeling about the whole thing.

You speak repeatedly about rendering on browser windows of widths less
than 500px.  Who uses such a window?  The last Nexus 1 holdout I knew
gave up years ago.  I would want some sort of indication that this is an
actual use case - one with unusually silent users it seems - before
trying to address it.

I really don't like the 40-classes hack.  CSS makes us do some painful
things sometimes, but still ... again, I would have to see that there is
a real use case before even considering it.

Just setting max-width doesn't do what you want?

I will listen to what others have to say and, if there is a clamor for
the inclusion of this work, I'll consider it further.  But, as it
stands, my impression still is that it adds a lot of machine-generated
complexity that humans will have to maintain going forward for a problem
that nobody has complained about.

Thanks,

jon
