But it means the tabstops on the ruler have no relation to where the
text is laid out on screen.

And it doesn't explain why explicitly setting the paragraph to RTL
causes text to align flush-right.

According to my understanding of the docs, the text should behave
identically whether the paragraph is explicitly RTL or if its first
character is a hard-RTL character.
