This is what the CSS Display spec says:
"For the purposes of box generation and layout, the element must be 
treated as if it had been replaced with its children and pseudo-elements 
in the document tree."
https://drafts.csswg.org/css-display/#box-generation

Which is pretty much what I said above, no?

I'm confused - @fantasai are you claiming that the above wording in
the css-display spec is wrong and that the intended meaning is
something fundamentally different?
