Specification
https://w3c.github.io/csswg-drafts/css-text-4/#propdef-hyphenate-limit-chars

Summary

This property specifies the minimum number of characters in a hyphenated
word. When applying the hyphenation, the optimal minimum number of
characters in the word, before the hyphen, or after the hyphen can vary by
the design of the page, or by the language. This property allows the finer
control of the hyphenation.

Motivation

The finer control of the hyphenation is desired for developers wanting
better typography on the web. It can also help international pages when the
default settings are not optimal. Supporting this feature reduces the needs
of using the JavaScript hyphenation libraries. The tracking bug has 29
stars as of Oct, 2022.
