I would guess that is true for most epub ereaders not based on very very recent webkit/webengine browsers. So using it will limit your base for your epub.
Personally, I think the ability to nest css selectors inside each other is for the birds when it adds nothing and the first thing the downstream software generally does is flatten it back to a simple list an no one wants to process a second tree inside the html DOM tree.
So if you do attempt to write and use nested css in Sigil be prepared for it to get mangled.
Most of the younger devs never seem to have learned about the KISS principle of engineering. So sad. Or is this just my age showing ...

Or just because you
can do it, that you SHOULD

I wonder if this is just another case of planned obsolescence so you MUST by a new one?
