However, inside this constructor, you can access this.nextSibling after calling super(). What's nextSibling in this case? An uninitialized my-other-element. Thanks, that is very helpful. And I'd guess that with the current spec, it's an uninitialized my-other-element in the sense that its createdCallback has not been called, even though its constructor (which does nothing beside the normal HTMLElement/HTMLUnknownElement stuff) has indeed been called.
