(Button 1 is just visually overflowing its grid area; this happens to make it the same size as Button 2, due to how you set things up.) > but the fallback behavior for cases where there is no auto-sized element clearly doesn’t make sense for a content-distribution value; I don't understand what you mean by this. > it also doesn’t seem to mention whether max-width/max-height have to be honored and, if they do, what should be done in the case they prevent the space to be distributed among the items. Yes, our handling of clamping is not great right now. Obviously things need to get clamped in the middle there, so that if a max-* prevents it from reaching its full stretched size, it should still stretch as much as possible, and then start-align. I'll add an issue on it for now. ~TJ
