scrollbar-gutter

I'm just learning about scrollbar-gutter.

I have a banner and centered, scrollable content below it. The scrollbar shifts the content left a bit, putting it out of alignment with the centered banner content. Setting scrollbar-gutter: stable both-edges Allows the scrollable content to stay centered even when it has a scrollbar, by reserving the same amount of space on the opposite side. This is very nice for my purposes.

I only really want the both-edges part, though. I'd still prefer the scrollbar-gutter to be
auto
rather than stable, but scrollbar-gutter: auto both-edges is not supported, as both-edges is simply a modifier for the stable value.

So I bring this up for several reasons:
1. Does anyone have any insight behind why both-edges was made to be tied to the stable value, and not supported for
auto
?
2. Is there a good approach to getting insight into this sort of thing in general?
3. Is there a more appropriate channel to post isolated threads of general topics for discussion? Sometimes I'd just like to talk about or share a neat/useful thing I learned, that isn't necessarily a YouTube topic suggestion or something I need specific help with.

By the way, is the resources channel only for sharing resources, or is it for asking for them too?
