Summary

For the purposes of any operation targetting the scroll position of a sticky positioned element (or one of its descendants), the sticky positioned element must be considered to be positioned at its initial (non-offsetted) position. This was discussed in https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/1459.
