List numbering resets with addition of sub-list elements

Bug reports
1

Once you’ve done the above, delete everything above this line.

Steps to reproduce

Create a numbered list:
1)
2)

Add a sub-list to a list item before the (current) last one:
1)
a)
2)

Add another sub-list item…:
1)
a)
b)
1)

And unless I’m just doing something ridiculous on my end, #2 should have been ‘reset’ to #1 (as shown here)

Did you follow the troubleshooting guide? [Y/N]

Done; unfortunately, same behavior.

Expected result

1)
    a)
    b)
2)

Actual result

1)
    a)
    b)
1)

Additional information

Seems more like a bug (unexpected behavior) than a feature request. Hope this is the right spot for it. Thanks for a really excellent tool, otherwise!!!

This is a quirk of the live preview mode (another one was just reported here). The numbering will render correctly in view mode.

This isn’t a bug. You can’t use letters as list markers in an ordered list in Markdown. (You can use CSS to display them as letters when the list is rendered in Reading View or export.) Basic formatting syntax - Obsidian Help

(Also your steps to reproduce show no indentation but I assume from the expected/actual output shown later that that’s an error, probably the result of not putting them in code blocks.)
