Expand description
What an HTML element brings uninvited, and how a primitive gives it back.
The renderer picks an element from the description (a link that writes is a
<button>, a described set of values is a <ul>) and the element arrives
carrying a user-agent look nobody asked for. Withdrawing that look is a
recurring ask rather than an edge case, and left to each arm it gets written
by hand once per arm with no arm aware of the others.
§Why this is a withdrawal and not a depth
makeover_layout::Depth was the obvious home and is the wrong one. A
depth states what a region is, a fill and a bevel, and every variant
answers None for a stroke, so an added border axis would have covered one
of the seven properties in play and left .link untouched. What these arms
share is not a shape. It is the absence of one the browser supplied.
§Renderer-local by construction
A terminal has no element chrome to withdraw and an immediate-mode painter
draws from nothing, so this concept cannot rise into the description layer.
Nothing in makeover-layout knows the word, and there is no cascade.
