No.

I said, "The only case for such intervention would be when the combined
mass of child boxen is smaller than the parent.  In this case, I say it
should just be aligned centrally and if one desires different alignment,
they can wrap the child boxen in a shrunken box whose alignment you can
adjust."

I don't call that ambiguous. ;)
