In what way is min-width inefficient?
I'm not sure I understand the "recursive" part: if some string has a
certain value of some text property, then every character of that
string has that same value of that property, and thus you cannot have
some of those characters have the same property with a different
value. So how can the "recursive" part work in practice?
