Does flexbox make the child elements inside the container inline? I'm confused on how these text elements are restricted just by adding align-items: center.
I know that flex defaults to stretch... is that the answer to this question?

Try without "flex-direction: column"...

Yes, that's the answer. Default is stretch along the cross-axis - which is the row since you're flex-direction: column. By changing them to align-items: center you're removing the stretch and then placing them center which ALSO makes them their "natural" width.
