I think you want the definition to be overriding the X vs. Y metrics (fundamentally), not as referencing the block/inline axes. And then describing the impact of that to be affecting the block axis only, with the second value only being used in upright vertical typesetting modes. (The actual definition of which metric gets used should be embedded into the part of the spec that uses the metric, rather than in the definition of how it gets overridden.)

Also, you need to be very clear that the second value defaults to normal, not to duplicating the first value.
