This is also a discrepancy between the live preview and the reading view.

Environment

  • Operating system: Windows 11
  • Debug info:
    SYSTEM INFO:

Additional information

If the second paragraph starts with a letter instead of a digit, the rendered result would be normal.

Very interesting. This is a corner case not handled by the reader parser.

Escaping the period seems to work:

This is a list
- a
- b
- c
- d  

0\.5 percent of me is ...   
- a
- v
- b
