Re: [csswg-drafts] [css2.2] Section 9.4.1's definition of a BFC is an oversimplification (#12524)

To me, the existing definition seems quite accurate. Block formatting context operates only block-level boxes participating in it, so inline-level content (which participates in inline formatting context inside these boxes), out-of-flow elements (which don't participate in block formatting context at all), and element with different positioning schemes (also not participating in block formatting context) are out of scope from its perspective. [css-display] further clarifies the limits of applicability and the interaction between different formatting contexts including block: https://drafts.csswg.org/css-display-4/#formatting-context
