I have never heard of this intrinsic value before until I come across this page on MDN.
From what I know intrinsic means natural. So how does this work out in CSS. I thought that auto would have been natural. I've searched around a bit but can't find anything on it.
What does it do different than auto?
The example I saw was max-width: intrinsic;

Anything intrinsic comes from within. Doing a job for only money is not intrinsic. Doing a job because you love it is intrinsic; the motivation comes from within. It's good to treat people as having intrinsic value. If you like someone for intrinsic reasons, then you have no other motivation.
The definition of intrinsic is something that is natural or inherent, as opposed to something that has to be learned. An example of intrinsic is a mother's love for her child. adjective.
Intrinsic motivation is the act of doing something without any obvious external rewards. You do it because it's enjoyable and interesting, rather than because of an outside incentive or pressure to do it, such as a reward or deadline.
Intrinsic motivation is defined as doing an activity for its inherent satisfaction rather than for some separable consequences. An intrinsically motivated employee works for the enthusiasm and challenge involved, rather than the external benefits.
It looks like the intrinsic value is part of the newer CSS3 sizing module:

I have not used it yet but perhaps the reference will provide you with more information.
Based on a quick review, this module would make it easier to specify how content fills the width and height of a parent containing block.
At the moment, JavaScript functions are often used to compute widths and heights of container blocks based on % values for variable child elements content.
