I believe the spec language is unclear here.

It says: 

               The 'implicit' alignment of complex elements and groups is 
the alignment of its child with the greatest alignment.

This could be worded more clearly:

              The 'implicit' alignment of a complex element is the 
alignment of its model group. The 'implicit' alignment of a model group is 
the alignment of its child with the greatest alignment.
