In the Computed Values section, the theme of Example 11 is “Computing a relative value generally absolutizes it”. The example then ends with the sentence “See examples (f), (g) and (h) in the table below.”

However, only example (f) is an example of this theme. Why does Example 11 mention examples (g) and (h) when nothing happens to their values between the Specified value and Computed value steps? These two examples are examples for what is mentioned in the subsequent Used Values section, where it says that some values are absolutized late because knowledge about the layout is needed.
