> The spec is modifying the term "size" with the adjectives "outer" "hypothetical" and "main". These are defined through the definitions of "outer size" "hypothetical size" and "main size". Standard English rules for combining adjectives apply. Your explanation of "adjective modifying size" oversimplifies the issue. "Outer" and "hypothetical" refer to different types of size, not just modify "size" itself. Terms like "outer hypothetical main size", "outer cross size", and "outer flex base size" combine distinct concepts: "outer" relates to the margin box, while "hypothetical main size" concerns the content box after constraints. Combining these terms results in conflicting meanings, making the phrasing unclear. Clearer definitions would better capture their intended meanings in the spec. -- GitHub Notification of comment by gitspeaks Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/11425#issuecomment-2578880545 using your GitHub account -- Sent via github-notify-ml as configured in https://github.com/w3c/github-notify-ml-config
