To clarify the original intent of this issue: my focus is not on the phrase "Block-level boxes are boxes," even though the original text contains this phrase. My focus is on the ambiguity of the phrase "participate in a block formatting context" as it is used in the current text. The core problem is that this general phrase is hyperlinked directly to section 9.4.1, which details the specific rules for establishing a new BFC. This structure can easily lead a reader to the incorrect conclusion that any block box that is merely "participating" will also, for example, contain floats—even a simple div element. My goal is to address this potential for misinterpretation caused by the hyperlink. The initial suggestion to rewrite the sentence was just one possible approach, but the fundamental issue is with the link's destination. -- GitHub Notification of comment by kannanwisen Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/12529#issuecomment-3124962170 using your GitHub account -- Sent via github-notify-ml as configured in https://github.com/w3c/github-notify-ml-config
