Description
https://www.w3.org/TR/css-break-3/#break-margins specifies "When an unforced break occurs before or after a block-level box, any margins adjoining the break are truncated to zero. When a forced break occurs there, adjoining margins before the break are truncated..."
We think it should be clarified what "margins adjoining the break" and "adjoining margins" mean exactly.
We have assumptions, but don't agree entirely.
