Masonry and good defaults

The author, a long-time CSS educator, presents a detailed opinion on implementing CSS masonry layout. They argue against defining masonry as part of CSS Grid, advocating instead for a separate 'display: masonry' value. The core argument centers on the importance of good defaults for ease of learning and use, explaining how a dedicated property would provide more intuitive initial behavior and a clearer teaching path compared to the current complex Grid-based workaround.
