Thank you for the explanations Kris! That’s really helpful.
So I only face this on a very small scale. I do think sometimes though it could be helpful to change the overall expectation with regards to the Product. To establish that Discourse is moving fast.
That could be nice but I believe it would still require easier handles. There’s just so many templates. Even if each of those has a simpler CSS, if I can’t modify them in an orchestrated way then it’s still a lot of work.
It’s a beautiful mental model. I might prefer having exact sizes because they are so much easier to apply. Like, someone has a design system, I just apply the numbers and look at the outcome. While as otherwise I feel I’d need to align two systems. Like I’d need to understand both their character and find their common tune.
