So, please go there, click the requirements for Chinese, and have a look at
Section 2.4.2:

https://www.w3.org/TR/2023/DNOTE-clreq-20230401/#latin-one-by-one

Clause 2.1. of that section says "In vertical writing mode, there are 3 methods
for arranging Western text or European numerals"

These methods are:

* The mode I described, i.e. Western glyphs in regular orientation.
* Rotation - what LO does now
* Pure horizontal, i.e. you get a stretch of horizontal text cutting a
vertically-progressing sequence

Here are renderings of the first two methods:

https://www.w3.org/TR/2023/DNOTE-clreq-20230401/images/en/latin-90-clockwise.svg

so, it seems this document agrees partially with what I said, and partially
with what you said.
