Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-align] Shouldn't 'left'/'right' keywords definitions be simplified?

I'm generally loathe to make these sort of higher-specificity edits; while we don't *expect* to define anything else that makes justify/align depend on something other than writing-mode (and consider our decision to do so in Flexbox to be a mistake), if for some reason we ever *do*, it's better for this text to correctly handle it.

As well, even if I did specialize it to Flexbox, I'd still want to include a note explaining *why* this exception exists, which would just restate the more generic rule that we just removed.

We do sometimes add notes explaining that the generic rule is actually equivalent to a more specific rule like you suggest, tho.
