Old Dogs, New CSS Tricks

Totally. The phone problem I think is unavoidable for a large enough organization. At a certain size of company, with enough users, you just have to accept that your tech stack will lag behind for a few years, OR, you're going to spend an extraordinary amount of dev time building backwards compatibility for less capable devices.

I find it silly how some people tack on "just ship a fallback stylesheet" as a legitimate answer (not accusing you) because we all know that it's never that simple.

I just don't use any of the new features until someone complaints about it. If support is there and it doesn't make it impossible to reason about ill adopt it and thank them.

   @container style(color: green) and style(background-color: transparent),
    not style(background-color: red),
    style(--themeBackground),
    style(--themeColor: blue) or style(--themeColor: purple),
    (max-width: 100vw) and style(max-width: 600px) {
  /* <stylesheet> */
  }

It is useful as a selector for people. Best not let that guy anywhere near my code.
