container queries have a very obvious chicken and egg problem if used a certain way: If this container is less than 30px wide, make its content 60px wide. Otherwise make it 20px wide. Now that container exists in a quantum state of being both 30 and 60px wide. I actually haven't looked into container queries to see how they ended up dealing with this yet.

Obviously this is a very contrived example but it can also express itself in subtler ways.

Comeau has a piece on that. Another property to constrain it is the solution.
