### Steps to reproduce

1. Create a new file with a bullet/numbered list, followed by a regular line of text without an empty line as separation.

2. Embed this file in another file

### Did you follow the [troubleshooting guide](https://forum.obsidian.md/t/about-the-bug-reports-category/24/10)? [Y/N] Y

### Expected result

The line following the bullet list should be indented as regular text.

### Actual result

There is an additional empty line before the list and the line after the list gets intended as if it was a part of the bullet list (just without the bullet point).  
In fact, everything till the next empty line gets indented as if it was part of the list.

### Environment

Obsidian v1.5.11, sandbox vault

* * *

### Additional information

The strict line breaks option is turned off.
