Inheritance and Cascade
We also added [a] fairly complex mechanism to CSS:
inheritance and cascading. Inheritance was/is is fairly well
understood, it's used in many other computer languages as
well.
Cascading, however, was something new and in some ways
it competes with inheritance. I can see reasons for not liking it,
but to me the benefit of not having to provide complete style
sheets makes up for that.
