Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-display] Parent box of run-in or non-principal box (#3158)

@fantasai I'm complaining that the definition is not clear. Frankly I'm not sure whether this "parent box" concept just refers to the parent (the graph theory concept) in the box tree?

In that case I don't get why you are providing some kind of partial definition. It's confusing because it's looks like you are trying to define something different than the trivial concept, but it's not properly defined. And as you say, it's implied, so I would just remove it.

If this is a different concept, the definition should state the difference clearly, like

> The **parent box** of a box is its nearest ancestor in the box tree which is not an element-generated non-principal box.
