A stray semicolon in my fluid type scale was killing Safari on iPad | Crafting With Code

I built a font preview page with clamp() on font sizes and it looked great in Chrome but jumped all over on my iPad. Turns out a single semicolon inside one font-family stack in my CSS broke the whole rule in Safari, so it fell back to whatever default it felt like. Fixed it by moving each family to its own line and the jumpiness went away. Has anyone found a quick way to catch that kind of thing before you test on every device?
