Yes, the semantics of *CSS*. However, the rendering is ultimately up
to the user-agent. Even if all the rule sets in your author stylesheet
are honoured in full by a conforming user-agent, and you know that they
have been, you still can't reliably predict the rendering because
user-agents have idiosyncrasies.
And that's a big if. I've already given a multitude of instances where
that condition wouldn't be met, and knowing whether that condition is
met or not is not feasible.
