Oops, fat finger...meant to point to the overall section
https://html.spec.whatwg.org/#parsing

(this is the part that was never defined in the original HTML spec,
which caused browser engines to just implement their own secret sauce

- the latter being what 4.1.1 means when it talks about "nested
according to the specification")
