Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-display] Understanding blockification (#12216)

> Is it true that the only important thing blockification does is guarantee a block container is generated and never an inline?

Blockification doesn't guarantee a block container at all. It just guarantees that the box won't be inline-level.

Blockification and inlinification are just a way to explain what should happen when a box isn't allowed to choose being inline-level or not.

> There seems to be a contradiction with absolute positioning as well

No contradiction, the static position just uses the original display before blockification.
