What specific section or headline is this issue about?

Syntax - Firefox note

What information was incorrect, unhelpful, or incomplete?

Note: Firefox implements a similar property, but with different values: -moz-osx-font-smoothing. It only works on macOS.

auto - Allow the browser to select an optimization for font smoothing, typically grayscale.

grayscale - Render text with grayscale anti-aliasing, as opposed to the subpixel. Switching from subpixel rendering to anti-aliasing for light text on dark backgrounds makes it look lighter.

What did you expect to see?

-moz-osx-font-smoothing seems to have additional options according to https://caniuse.com/font-smooth

also, I may be wrong here, but does auto typically use subpixel antialiasing and not grayscale?

Do you have any supporting links, references, or citations?
