In markdown

    My favorite number is probably the number
    1. It's the smallest natural number that is
    > 0. With pencils, though, I prefer a
    # 2.

is a paragraph, a list item, a block quote, and a heading (4 things). In djot it's just a single paragraph.

If you want it to be 4 things you have to add a newline between each one.

Personally I think djot gets this right.
