Two nits:

(a) s/flex ratios/flex factors/ at the end there.

(b) It's unclear what "such lengths" refers to, in the second sentence.
 It suggests that it's referring to something in the first sentence, but
the first sentence doesn't mention lengths at all -- just factors.
Maybe replace "such lengths" with "zero-<length> <flex-basis> values",
or something?
