Inconsistency in border shorthands about stylex HOT 4 CLOSED

but borderLeft is not

This is indeed strange.

• All border shorthands should apply.
• All of them should give you a lint error. (Reconsider this decision)

Thanks for spotting this. I'll figure out what's going on and fix it!

@QingqiShi We initially disallowed a few shorthand properties:

• background
• animation
• transition
• border and border[Dir]

This was done for two reasons:

1. Alignment with React Native
2. A conceptual idea that one property should have one value. (We discourage multiple values for margin for example)

We're reconsidering this decision and will document based on where we land.

This particular issue has been resolved and a separate issue is tracking other missing properties. So closing.

@nmn, thank you for the prompt response! I really appreciate it. Additionally, I believe it would be beneficial if the documentation could clarify why these shorthand properties trigger a lint error, especially if they are intended to be supported in practice. This would greatly aid developers in understanding the intended usage and limitations.
