I often don't understand what flexbox is doing when what's inside is itself complicated. I think that fits-content might help, because I haven't tried that.

I honestly don't understand why people would find Flexbox hard to understand. Yes, there's a little bit of new terminology, and there's a reason for that. There is a main axis whose orientation can be changed, which affects the interpretation of other properties you use, but most of the time, you won't change it.
