Comment (by desrosj):
I attached a PR that accomplishes this. It seems that we're just
constantly adding and removing the same properties release to release:
- `-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio`
- `-o-tab-size`
- `-webkit-clip-path`.
This seems to have been happening since 6.2 in [55139], [55150], [56279],
[56948] and [56956]. I don't love that we're just churning code back and
forth even in built files.
Looking at `-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio`, I'm not sure why this is
being added/removed. It looks like this is a [https://caniuse.com/mdn-
css_at-rules_media_-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio currently supported
property in Safari].
`-webkit-clip-path` also appears to not be required in versions with
enough usage to be added back.
For `-o-tab-size`, this looks to be happening because Opera Mini
(unreleased since 2015) is hovering at 1.029% usage. It's likely
fluctuating above and below the currently defined 1% threshold from month
to month. It's also required in Opera 11.5-12.1, but all of these are at
0% usage.
I think that we could probably consider dropping Opera from our explicitly
defined `browserslist` in the near future. The entire Opera user base
consistently sits at ~2%, and there's always the `> 1%` rule in the
`browserslist`. More research will need to be done, though, to determine
how that ~2% translates to WordPress users.
