I think there are several issues being discussed at the same time in this one. Separating them into sub topics: 

* case 1 form https://github.com/WICG/spatial-navigation/issues/94#issue-351959505 is now here: https://github.com/WICG/spatial-navigation/issues/121

* Prioritizing fully or mostly aligned elements is now here: https://github.com/WICG/spatial-navigation/issues/122

As for the rest, which I think is best described in https://github.com/WICG/spatial-navigation/issues/94#issuecomment-425004503, I think I was actually confused when I said I agreed. In https://github.com/WICG/spatial-navigation/issues/94#issuecomment-425004503, if the green box is in the same container as the other boxes, the specification already handles that. However, if it is not in the same container, then it seems that skipping it is a feature, not a bug. That is what containers are for. If that's not desired, then making the "blue" box in that example a container seems like a mistake.

Is there any situation where we would want the blue box to be a container, but still go from red to green?
