Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-flexbox-1][css-sizing-3] Definiteness of `min-height: min-content` (#6457)

As Oriol mentioned, min-content and max-content differ in the block axis when sizing flex and grid containers, because min-content sizing doesn't distribute any free space.

The original question still remains: the spec is currently implying that the content-based sizing keywords in the `min-*` properties don't prevent children from resolving %s against those sizes (even though the `width/height` properties themselves do). This is *necessary* behavior for the automatic minimum size (or else percentages would *usually* be unresolvable), which can be content-based, so it *seems* like it should be fine to specify that explicitly for all the content-based sizing keywords. But given that these keywords aren't otherwise representing definite sizes, do we actually want to?
