be cautious.
When doing HTML/CSS, here's two reasons that can cause some fuckery that you can't see, and you must by this point know that there's all types of clients. There's guys that won't check this and say it's fine, there's guys that won't know how to check this, etc.

or they are on some super old mac from 2009 that can't run the newest chrome so they are 20 versions behind, or they say theyare using chrome but are actually using brave browser "because it's the same thing", or they have some fucking adblock or other plugin causing issues, or they set domain in hosts file to another ip and forgot about it, or a million other unpredictable things.

Like I said, we do this too - albeit rarely for html/css. It's more common with complex stuff like webrtc issues. We've also teamviewered cam models' computers to solve things like this.
