'For the purposes of applying the bidirectional algorithm to the paragraph-level
container that
a bdi element finds itself within, the
bdi element must be treated
like
a U+FFFC
OBJECT REPLACEMENT CHARACTER.
'
Thus, regardless of its content and its
dir attribute (if any),
a BDI will not prevent
a strongly RTL (or LTR) character preceding it from forming
a single directional run with
another strongly RTL (LTR) character following it.

<!-- Key to entities used below:
א ... ו - The first six Hebrew letters (strongly RTL).
‭ - The LRO (left-to-right-override) formatting character.
- The PDF (pop directional formatting) formatting character; closes LRO. -->
<!--
If the BDI in the following DIV were a SPAN, its b would prevent the א and the ב
from forming a single RTL run and thus keep the >s between from being mirrored into &n>lt;s.
