Tha saga continues https://front-end.social/@alvaromontoro/114308010244957500
I received a $3,700 medical bill for the screening that was fully covered.
I called my insurance and they told me the screening is covered for people 45yo and older, but I'm only 43... So they washed their hands and referred me to the doctor's office.
The doctor's office says that because it was something requested by the doctor during a visit, and not a regular check-up thing, it's considered diagnostic and I need to pay for it.

# Flow-relative positions
CSS has logical properties for things like margin, padding, or border. Now, they will also be available in the position type (e.g. the value for background-position, not to be confused with the position property).
# New calc-size() function
A new function able to safely operate with intrinsic values (auto, max-content, fit-content, etc.) And new keywords (size) to add more flexibility to the calculations.

# New functional notation
As you may have noticed, some of the functions from this thread may take a comma-separated list as arguments. To accommodate these values unambiguously, parameters may be separated by semi-colons (;) instead of commas (,).
# New first-valid() function
A problem with CSS variables is they may be valid even if they contain an incorrect value. The first-valid() function deals with this easily and effectively, returning the first valid value from a list of parameters.
