I agree with excluding (clamping) the trailing abspos in the clamp by height scenario. I think a spec way to achieve that could be to say, in https://drafts.csswg.org/css-overflow-4/#line-clamp-containers where the 3 possible positions for clamp points are defined, to say something like this in the third one:
> * A point between two [in-flow](https://drafts.csswg.org/css-display-4/#in-flow) [block-level](https://drafts.csswg.org/css-display-4/#block-level) sibling boxes in the line-clamp container’s [block formatting context](https://drafts.csswg.org/css-display-4/#block-formatting-context). <ins>If there are out-of-flow boxes whose static position falls between such to two in-flow block-level siblings, the clamp point is consider being before them.</ins>
