Point 1 is clear now, thanks. It seems you did not address point 2? |

Done. I just pushed the definition to a separate sentence, so there's no way to misinterpret its bounds. |

There are a couple of ambiguities in §12.5. Resolve Intrinsic Track Sizes,
under "For auto minimums: ", 2nd paragraph:
It appears that @tabatkins already agreed that it's the latter and that the text needs to be clearer:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1255393#c4
Is it the entire text that follows, or is it just up to the first comma and that the "or else the item’s
in-content contribution" is not part of the definition, but rather something that just relevant to
computing the value to be used for the "auto minimums" clause?
(I will assume for now that the definition includes all the text up to the final period.)
In general, I think it would be a good idea to break out each definition of a term to
a standalone paragraph, rather than embedding it together with other text.
Perhaps in a separate chapter early in the document, like how it's done in css-sizing:
