Just checking: does "starting page" mean document's first page or the
first page where the element appears?  (Tab's question about media
queries might at least slightly relevant to the answer, but really I'm
just making sure we all have the same interpretation when we read the
sentence.)

Sorry, I don't understand this condition, or I don't understand how it
affects widths, or why this condition should make a difference to whether
"the floats' widths [should be] reduced in proportion ... until they fit".

It might suffice just to make sure an example is also added.
