#### Prefer logical properties

Use [logical properties](https://www.w3.org/TR/css-logical-1/)
(`inset-block-start`, `margin-inline`) over physical properties (`top`,
`margin-left`), to allow the components to be used in different writing systems.
Physical properties can be used when the positioning is not intended to be
relative to the flow of the page.
