Describe your issue

We are building libraries in our company and provide a Tailwind Preset from version 3. In this preset we have color entries like adaptive-bg-basic-level-1(-pressed and -hovered). Same for level-2 and level-3

For some reason with the new @config directive, level-2 and level-3 are working, but level-1 preset configurations aren't.

//preset.js
export default {
  theme: {
    colors: {
      adaptive: {
        bg: {
          basic: {
            level: {
              1: { // Does not work with @config
                DEFAULT: 'color-mix(in srgb,light-dark(#ffffff, #16181b) calc(<alpha-value> * 100%), transparent)',
                hovered: 'color-mix(in srgb,light-dark(#f3f3f5, #2e3036) calc(<alpha-value> * 100%), transparent)',
                pressed: 'color-mix(in srgb,light-dark(#edeef0, #3b3e44) calc(<alpha-value> * 100%), transparent)',
              },
              2: {
                DEFAULT: 'color-mix(in srgb,light-dark(#f3f3f5, #222428) calc(<alpha-value> * 100%), transparent)',
                hovered: 'color-mix(in srgb,light-dark(#edeef0, #3b3e44) calc(<alpha-value> * 100%), transparent)',
                pressed: 'color-mix(in srgb,light-dark(#e1e2e6, #484b53) calc(<alpha-value> * 100%), transparent)',
              },
              3: {
                DEFAULT: 'color-mix(in srgb,light-dark(#edeef0, #2e3036) calc(<alpha-value> * 100%), transparent)',
                hovered: 'color-mix(in srgb,light-dark(#e1e2e6, #16181b) calc(<alpha-value> * 100%), transparent)',
                pressed: 'color-mix(in srgb,light-dark(#c3c7ce, #0d0e11) calc(<alpha-value> * 100%), transparent)',
              },
            },
          },
        },
      },
    },
  },
