    5151 * ''Clear path forward.''  When we remove a vendor prefix, web developers have a clear path forward: use the unprefixed version of the API.  This clear path forward means that we won't strand developers when we remove a vendor-prefixed version of an API.

    53  * ''Standards citizenship.''  Many W3C working groups, including the CSS working group, [http://wiki.csswg.org/spec/vendor-prefixes request that implementors remove support for vendor prefixed features] once the specifications of the features reach a certain level of maturity, typically Candidate Recommendation.  To be good citizens of these standards bodies, we should make an effort to remove vendor prefixes, even if doing so would incur a larger compatibility cost than we would otherwise prefer.
