    There's nothing special about these lines being in blockquotes. The same thing would happen if the lines were not in blockquotes. This is just one of the ways that Markdown works. A single linebreak in the source text is considered an extension of the previous line, unless there's formatting that indicates that it's not a continuation (i.e., continuing the previous line is the default).

  • Ah, thank you! It was just confusing that StackEdit behaves differently, so StackEdit apparently is not pure MD. Commented Sep 23, 2024 at 9:33
