Nits with link rel=expect

[jakearchibald]

What is the issue with the HTML Standard?

https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/links.html#link-type-expect

the link might block rendering until that element's closing tag is parsed.

That seems like a pretty rough approximation of the behaviour. Should this be in a non-normative section? I found it misleading initially (eg "what if the element isn't inserted by the parser?")

Whenever the following conditions occur for a link element el:

Feels like this should be "any of the following". It isn't clear it's an "any" situation until the "or" at the end of the penultimate condition.

Yea, I was cargo-culting the rest of the links, e.g. https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/links.html#link-type-opener. Those "The keyword indicates" sentences are not exactly normative. I'm OK with doing whatever with this.

Eh, maybe get a second opinion on whether it's better to copy the other links or not.

I agree that we should probably reword the introductory text to be a bit more accurate. It's not normative, but it should probably avoid being confusing. I don't have any immediate suggestions for how to summarize the behavior while staying concise, though.
