On sections (and probably other elements?) margin-bottom of children is clipped. The old trick of overflow-y:auto fixes it:

To replicate, place a paragraph in a section and compare:

I'm not sure if we should apply such changes to base HTML elements.

Margin bottom is not clipped. Yes, by the browser terms it overflows from the section itself, but is applied. section is a purely block element without any explicit styles, doesn't have any margin itself, so applying overflow: auto doesn't seem to have any visual effect on margin collapse.

If we do that for section should we do it for div as well? what others?

If there are specific places where baseline drifts they are likely not caused by browser native styling of elements, but errors in our components. So we should track those instead I believe.
