Great answer. In your scenarios, let's say OrangeCorp has their 'brand-orange' color token. They've defined it as the hexadecimal `#FFA500`.
Engineer Bob implements it as `hsl(39, 100%, 50%)` in a web project because the loading state requires shifting the color values, and he has a library that works with HSL but doesn't work hex.
What do you store for the source of truth? Are we just storing the hex value, and deriving translations from that? Or are we storing 'brand-orange' with a map of "hex: FFA500" and "HSL: 39, 100, 50"? Does the specification have an opinion?
