I'd go further, validation is only a tool that may be of some help to
beginners to discover basic syntax errors. But there is no intrinsic
value in CSS that "validates". Most competent developers never check
their CSS with a syntax checker, ergo nothing is lost by their code not
passing a dumb bot check.
