Not 100% is this is intended behavior and I would investigate more but I am a struggling grad student. Anybody else is free to investigate more. Even if its intended I would argue that it is a bit counter-intuitive to make header information appear

That sounds like alternative Atx-style Markdown headings.

You can do it here as well.

Interesting! Didn’t even know this existed. I agree that appears to be the case, thanks! Marking as solved

If you really need a = there, you can escape it with a \ to prevent the Markdown formatting from kicking in. e.g.

something
\=

or put some text after it:

something
= more text
