Thanks for diving into the conversation Tab! I guess I just need to wait for Elliott to confirm shadow roots create counter scopes.

Hm, either rendering is consistent with what we've already answered. I think I'm with you, saying that the shadow root is also a root for counter scopes. I'd like Elliot to comment before I commit to anything, though, as he knows more about WebKit's counter implementation. ~TJ
