Description
From: https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/7596
The above issue resolved that align-content wont affect the static-position of abspos children within a flexbox.
This issue tracks the same change for justify-content. Currently all browsers support this behaviour.
I've added a use-counter in Blink to determine how web compatible this change would be.

Research direction
Start with the linked CSSWG issue 7596 and the CSS Flexbox specification’s rules for the static position of absolutely positioned flex children. Review the existing justify-content behavior and the reported browser support, including the Blink use-counter mentioned here. Done means the specification reflects the resolved behavior for justify-content without changing the separate align-content decision.
