<q>In other words, if the parent element is 0px wide and its child is
always 700px wider than its parent, that child element cannot ever be
narrower than 700px. When negative margins are applied to both sides
of the widthless nested child, the effect is to widen that child
element in both directions, causing it to appear wider than its
parent!.</q>

The problem of min-width / min-height is solved a thousand of so years

need.
