These logical properties are useful features. However, when used in combination with CSS written in traditional physical properties, it results in a mix of logical and physical properties, compromising code consistency.
If there were properties named in physical versions (such as margin-vertical
, margin-horizontal
, padding-vertical
, padding-horizontal
, border-vertical
, border-horizontal
), they could be more conveniently used in physically-based CSS.
