On the contrary, we can **selectively** affect pages or elements according to it's style(Either automatically based on the principal writing mode, as you said, or manually set using a new property, as I said). This is where a CSS solution will go beyond `autodir`. -- GitHub Notification of comment by Zhang-Junzhi Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/10060#issuecomment-1998862112 using your GitHub account -- Sent via github-notify-ml as configured in https://github.com/w3c/github-notify-ml-config
