When referring to the spec, under section 4.1 on Positional Alignment (on line 323 of the Overview.bs file), the last 2 values on the definition list are left and right.

left (self, content)
...
right (self, content)
...

In the paragraph of grammar terms below the list, neither nor includeleft and right in their lists. Where does left and right apply?

It seems that these values were removed from the spec at some point, but not from all places. I assume they should be removed from the list you refer to as well.

They were not removed, they are merely restricted to justify-self, so we couldn't include them in the shared <self-alignment> grammar set. Remember that there is a difference between a non-terminal grammar term (which is just for convenience and readability) and a property's actual value space (which has a real-world meaning)!

… just excluded from <self-position> for reasons. Fixes w3c#1980.
