But again, nft is replacement for netfilter and it works in slightly different way. that was maybe a bad idea to try to follow Netfilter packet flow diagram.
The Wikipedia article was conflating netfilter with iptables. nftables is part of netfilter; it replaces iptables, the packet-filtering portion of netfilter. I've made some edits to try to make this distinction.
