While this is clever, it's rather difficult to understand and maintain. Imagine having to sift through a CSS file full of > * + * and assorted symbols and figuring out what they mean (and seeing this article, it's clearly not that simple to explain in documentation either).

It might help to read the original article that was published nearly 10 years ago [1].

You might as well complain that x = y + z is bad code because you have to figure out what the symbols mean.
