Description
What type of issue is this?
Missing compatibility data
What information was incorrect, unhelpful, or incomplete?
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/@container#browser_compatibility has compat data for "Style queries for custom properties" but not for container style queries overall.
What browsers does this problem apply to, if applicable?
No response
What did you expect to see?
Some way to know that container style queries aren't supported for regular CSS properties. https://caniuse.com/css-container-queries-style makes this clear by treating it as partial implementation.
Did you test this? If so, how?
Nope.
Can you link to any release notes, bugs, pull requests, or MDN pages related to this?
ChromeStatus entries for support so far:
https://chromestatus.com/feature/5076875399921664
https://chromestatus.com/feature/6332337266098176
Do you have anything more you want to share?
It's not a given that container style queries will be supported on all CSS properties any time soon, or ever. We don't want to say "partial implementation" forever, since that would discourage use of the parts that actually do work.

Research direction
Start with the MDN @container browser compatibility section and compare its existing “Style queries for custom properties” data with the linked ChromeStatus entries. The work is done when compatibility data distinguishes support for style queries on custom properties from support for regular CSS properties, including partial implementation where appropriate.
