Tony is correct.  Read the line again - the properties *in this spec* don't apply to ::first-line or ::first-letter.  That just mean you can't do something like Tony's example.  

CSS 2.1's text was written before Flexbox had been created, so don't read too much into the precise term "block container element".  It's actually undefined whether ::first-line/letter should apply to a flexbox.  I'll ask on www-style.
