A really interesting read.

“Naming is always hard, yet it’s just something we have to do in CSS to properly select things. I think it’s time we start naming [CSS releases] like this, too. It’s only a matter of time before “modern” isn’t “modern” anymore.” — Geoff Graham

Now that CSS Anchor Positioning allows us to "name a reference" in CSS, do we need being able to consume the value of `:nth-child` or similar when naming things?

Something like:

a {
anchor-name: --link-${indexOf};
}

So we could anchor to ANY `<a>` on a page without needing to explicitly give each one of those an `anchor-name`?

I don't much know the View Transitions API, but maybe it could benefit from similar?
