What excites me about CSS variables is the fact it lets me drop sass/scss/less from my pipeline completely since it replicates the portions of sass/scss/less that I personally use. The live recalculation stuff seems cool too. It could be a good way to let users do minimal style changes on pages and just have java script update the variables over needing to compile a stylesheet server side.
When I first found out about CSS variables I got super excited then had them fall on their face on every browser at the time. So much disappointment. Glad to see them supported (by chrome at least)

I think I will drop my preprocessor when CSS gets nested rules.

And in a couple of months, by Electron once they move up to Chrome 49.
