On CSS locks and `clamp()` about modularscale-sass HOT 6 OPEN

Oh no worries. I want the best technique and I genuinely think Typetura is it.

My plan was to throw both locks and clamp out in favor of my other project, Typetura.

A bit more about why:

To your first point, locks and clamp could both control pacing but every pacing point would increase the complexity. With Typetura you can control pacing with a CSS easing curve. There is also the issue of different default browser font sizes as they throw off the font size calculation in locks and clamp. With Typetura there is still an alignment with your breakpoints as authored.

Additionally the ease of authoring is easier with Typetura. We can simply write the desired values into CSS keyframes as opposed to calculating the viewport unit equation to target those values in the locks or clamp functions. This was a bit tedious to write and test in the current (old?) version of modular scale making it a bit buggier than I wanted it to be. Utopia has more modern CSS output but still, the technique is more fragile and bug prone than what Typetura offers, and Typetura offers better pacing control, variable font support, etc.

I gonna read about Utopia. Never heard of it. I need to compare everything.

I'm sorry if I overstep a business decision!
