But doesn't the UA only use the largest margin of the two when
vertically aligning block elements?

Not always. When a bottom margin is -5px and the next element's top
margin is 15px, the effective margin is 10px.

So as long as you have a margin
of 0, the margin that occurs will be the one set or default for the
other element (in this case, a p seemingly)?

Yes, if is zero or positive. But not when it is negative.

Wow. That's a little counter-intuitive. But thanks.
