Re: [csswg-drafts] Definition of "Block-level box" in CSS2 Specification (#11126)

It seems that the root element being block-level is a direct definition achieved through blockification, not a consequence of the ICB establishing a block formatting context. Would you consider rephrasing the statement in https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/pull/8095

_"defining the ICB to establish a block formatting context so that the root element's box is fully defined to be a block-level box"_

to clarify that the root element is defined as block-level through blockification, independent of the BFC established by the ICB? This might help make the relationship clearer.
