Thanks for the suggestion! It took me some times to know where to add it in order to not break the reading flow. I end up putting it in the first sentence as a link to the comment.

That works good. But i think your comment is specifically regarding favoring CSS variables over SCSS/pre-processed variables.

For me as a reader and someone that is not a css expert, I though “why the hell would you use css variables and make a wrapper around them when pre-processed variables are perfect”

But then I read this comment and it made sense. So I would probably add a section titled “why the heck would you use css variables in SCSS” and link the comment so the reader has context.

I see what you mean. I'll read again the whole stuff when I'll have some time and reconsider the place of the why explanation. Thanks for your feedback!
