Ah, here's the positive-condition version of your dense proposal (I rewrote the above comment three times, and of course didn't think of this until after I hit Comment): `dense` forces the flexbox lines to be completely filled if possible -- aka 0 free space -- by cramming in one more item when needed. `item-slack` loosens that; flex lines are allowed to have up to the slack amount of free space, but no more. That said, my practical objection still stands. If you can predict item sizes, then "amount of leftover space on the line" and "amount the item overflows by" are interchangeable and we can use either; if you can't predict item sizes, then it's still more important to control how much overflow is happening than how much free space is left. And `dense` can then be employed to allow some light rearranging to reduce the free space. -- GitHub Notification of comment by tabatkins Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/11480#issuecomment-2593806696 using your GitHub account -- Sent via github-notify-ml as configured in https://github.com/w3c/github-notify-ml-config
