Comment (by carbondigitalus):
Thanks for checking. The is-layout-flex class and its associated styles
are generated dynamically by the block editor's JavaScript — they are not
part of the core gallery stylesheet. In environments where that JS
pipeline is interrupted (e.g. third-party page builders rendering blocks
server-side), is-layout-flex styles may not load, and since the gallery
stylesheet has no display: flex of its own, the layout breaks entirely.
The issue is that style.min.css is incomplete — it defines flex-dependent
properties like justify-content and flex-wrap for .wp-block-gallery.has-
nested-images but never declares display: flex itself. The stylesheet
should not rely on a separate dynamically-injected class to establish the
flex context that its own rules depend on.
