Re: [csswg-drafts] position: parent; (#14203)

`position: relative` creates a new [stacking context](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/Guides/Positioned_layout/Stacking_context) on the parent which may not be desirable if other children of the parent need to use other forms of positioning with e.g. offset from grand-parent or the like.
