Apologies if it's not appropriate to raise issues for something like this. But I've been looking at the different viewports and behaviours on browsers and I've noticed for the layout viewport there are potentially a couple of slightly different definitions:
Including scrollbars: MDN for example explains the layout viewport as follows: "The area within the innerHeight and innerWidth is generally considered the layout viewport. The browser chrome is not considered part of the viewport."
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/Viewport_concepts . Now these properties include scrollbars.
Not including scrollbars: as described by yourself and others, referring to it as the area a fixed element is positioned with top, bottom, left, right of 0. This personally makes more sense to me as this is actually the space elements are laid out relative to.
Not sure if mentioning this distinction anywhere is worth it, and I could be missing something, but it does seem to be a little bit of a dual definition.
