I recall reading someone complaining about Apple adding this feature. Unlike normal vendor prefixes, it's not really for an experimental feature that other vendors might implement, it's a final feature that is proprietary.

It'd be foolish to use it on the broader web (and I don't know any instances of anyone doing so), but it seems like it could be really useful for HTML intended to be rendered in an app on an Apple platform.

  Why can't we have the same thing for "-android-system-headline" for example? And when everyone implements it, it would be just "system-headline".

    A brief Googling didn't make it clear to me whether Android has the option to set global text size or, if it does, whether it matches Apple's scheme sufficiently well that it'd make sense to have a common specification for this.

      That's a lot like saying that after searching the Usenet, you didn't find that IE supported the <blink> tag, while Netscape did :) Android should let you set system font sizes. It's a usability thing. And if Apple, Google, and MS can agree on how this is done, that'd be a good thing for everyone involved.

    We can! And we should!

From my understanding - it is proprietary at the moment but Apple has publicly pushed for other vendors to do something similar and for it to be standardized. There is a discussion on w3c to make this a standard: https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-style/2015Jul/0169.html https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-style/2015Jul/0169....
