 * When you use inheritance in Less, for example this code:
 *     ```
       .block {
         margin: 10px 5px;
         padding: 2px;
       }
   
       p {
         .block; /* Inherit styles from '.block' */
         border: 1px solid #EEE;
       }
       ul, ol {
         .block; /* Inherit styles from '.block' */
         color: #333;
         text-transform: uppercase;
       }
       ```
   
 * it is compiled to
 *     ```
       .block {
         margin: 10px 5px;
         padding: 2px;
       }
       p {
         margin: 10px 5px;
         padding: 2px;
         border: 1px solid #EEE;
       }
       ul,
       ol {
         margin: 10px 5px;
         padding: 2px;
         color: #333;
         text-transform: uppercase;
       }
       ```
   
 * What I want to ask, is it OK, to upload such .css file in wordpress.org themes
   directory? Would it pass a review? Cause it duplicates properties.
