In the 'els per row' example, there is symmetry related to the "correct" (hard to mess up that math) solution. In all other grids, including grid spec, there is no symmetry related to the correct solution.

I understand what grid spec is doing, and it's definitely easier to reason about... but is it right?

Grids were invented to derive functional beauty from math.

Grid spec and all grids don't seem as beautiful as the symmetrical solution.

I want to embrace grid spec when it lands (dat markup), but this seems more important to the designer in me. If it is agreed upon that it's broken, I'm sorry I didn't notice the general problem sooner.

Anxious to hear everyone's thoughts on this...
