Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-writing-modes] Question about implementability of the "different writing-mode value than its containing block" section of the spec

> So we can update the spec to check the parent box

Again, that makes computed style depend on box construction.  This is undesirable, and should be avoided if possible.

But also, I don't think it's necessarily true that the "parent box" and "containing block" have the same writing mode, depending on how "parent box" is defined.  Which it's not, really, last I checked.

> Wrt the conflict with the blockification rules, the intent of this rule is that it only affects the internal display type

OK, that's not what the spec says right now.  Fixing that would help, yes.
