all elements share that rule as their default --> CSS variables are by default inherited so defining them inside :root or * will give you the same result. This said I am against both configuration (the :root and *) because it's a very bad practise we see in all the courses/tutorial. CSS variables should be defined based on your use case. If you have to define a color that will get used everywhere then do it inside :root but if you will define a variable that will get used by one or two elements then define it only for them using a specific class. All the elements don't have to inherit all the variables
