The majority of items mentioned in the article are still in the earliest stages of the standardisation process and haven't even had their specifications finalised yet (see overview at https://www.w3.org/Style/CSS/current-work).

Having access to these cool new features so early on is nice, of course, but be ready and willing to deal with possible breaking changes or even future removal.

Here's a recent example of once such breaking API change in the `:has()` selector spec being discussed on the Firefox tracker: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=418039#c44. It will be interesting to see how the other browsers that have already released the outdated implementation to production deal with this.
