You need to refer to rule #5 specified above the part you quoted.
[quote]
5. Sort by order specified: if two rules have the same weight, the latter
specified wins. Rules in imported style sheets are considered to be before
any rules in the style sheet itself.

x97z is specified in the internal style sheet which is BEFORE the inline
style has been specified. Therefore, the inline style wins.
