Question about transition-property

At 8:49 into Transitions - Part 2, the following line is added: transition-property (margin, background) Why 'margin' and not 'margin-left', as it is listed in .wrap:hover .box{...}?

Just curious.

Works the same either way. The margin property includes margin-left, so specifying the transition on margin will affect the margin-left set on .wrap:hover.
