Missing explanation why `font-variant` is preferred over `font-feature-settings`

hi

on https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/font-feature-settings#Syntax it is mentioned that:

51

I was wondering why exactly that is. is there an explanation, or another resource I can refer to to learn more about this?

thank you.

I’m pretty sure this is because the dedicated properties lead to better (e.g. more predictable and understandable) results than trying to manipulate the low-level settings directly.

I’ve updated the note to hopefully make it a bit more useful. Does it work for you better now?
