Re: [csswg-drafts] Definiteness of flex items' main size depend on flex-basis's definiteness

We also haven't updated our implementation since 2015 for this section of spec text. By simply applying a definite `flex-basis` and a `height` of 0 in the demo above, this makes Chrome interoperable with Firefox and Edge. This leads me to wonder if the performance argument (what was brought up [~3 years](https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-style/2014Jul/0010.html) ago) is worth the author confusion here, and while I understand why inline & block direction are different - currently FF/Edge react the same for the author in either `row` or `column` directions which further makes me desire the implementations of FF/Edge. I think we may have done a bit of pre-optimization when discussing this in 2014, I truly think we should remove the constraints for 2 under section `9.8` as that's what we're doing.
