Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-inline-3] Clarification needed: Line box height can exceed a fixed line-height with mixed fonts (#12764)

@kannanwisen the section on line layout, right after the one I referenced clarifies this pretty well:

> Line Box Sizing: The [line box](https://www.w3.org/TR/css-inline-3/#line-box)’s [logical height](https://www.w3.org/TR/css-writing-modes-4/#logical-height) is sized to exactly include the aligned [layout bounds](https://www.w3.org/TR/css-inline-3/#layout-bounds) of all its [inline-level boxes](https://www.w3.org/TR/css-display-3/#inline-level-box).
