'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:
&#x05D0; ... &#x05D5; - The first six Hebrew letters (strongly RTL).
&#x202D; - The LRO (left-to-right-override) formatting character.
&#x202C; - The PDF (pop directional formatting) formatting character; closes LRO. -->
<!--
If the BDI in the following DIV were a SPAN, its b would prevent the &#x05D0; and the &#x05D1;
from forming a single RTL run and thus keep the &gt;s between from being mirrored into &lt;s.
