One of the people I follow recently posted the following on Twitter: <https://twitter.com/SlexAxton/status/519953582183809024> > white-space: nowrap; > whitespace: no-wrap; > > Don't pretend like you know. And when you look it up, don't pretend like it makes any sense. I've heard this complaint before, and railed against the dumb keyword myself. (Flexbox originally used no-wrap for flex-wrap, but we switched to nowrap for consistency with white-space.) This is one of the few keywords in the language that doesn't use a - between words (the only others I know of being values we inherited from SVG, like currentcolor). Anyone have objections to us just aliasing the value as "no-wrap"? That way, in a few years, people can just do the logical thing and use the value they expect, rather than having to deal with this wart forever. ~TJ
