Sorry, minor correction: I meant to say:
   ...we could instead make it pull from the *used* "flex-basis",
  **when computed flex-basis is auto**.

(the change there is: s/pull from the computed/pull from the used/ --
it's clearly not useful to pull from the *computed* flex-basis, since
that would just pull in the value "auto" which wouldn't provide any
information. :))
