It also only defines behavior for widths, and not for margins or heights.
Historically html has a model of endless tape. Limited in horizontal direction but unlimited in vertical direction. No limits - no context for flex units computation. It was simply impossible to define flexes for table heights.
CSS has concept of view height so vertical flexes can be added here.
I don't follow your reasoning here. You put to me that one practical layout that people have been asking for years is.

What I don't understand is what happens when the text size is bumped up? What stops the layout / content from overlapping, thus breaking the layout? How does an implementation calculate how much to flex vertically and what percentage of this is out of the viewpoint? How does flex work with monitors of different screen resolution?
I don't think you can even declare a limit on the vertical direction of a layout. I don see how flex units can be used for the layout of a whole page. For smaller localize constructions (much like how tables currently work) I can see there uses.
