On the subject of "Lazy Continuation Lines". They are not strictly against the specification of Markdown, and so are not (yet) caught by Markdown Lint nor by the automatic formatter. There is an issue to add an optional rule for this to Markdown Lint: DavidAnson/markdownlint#977
Here is what it looks like:
this is a lazy continuation line and will be part of the previous line
so will this
so will this
- this is an unordered list item
lazy continuation line
and this
and this
lists aren't
required
for this```
Each of the examples above have all of the text rendered into continuous paragraphs, like below.
```1. this is an ordered list item this is a lazy continuation line and will be part of the previous line so will this so will this
- this is an unordered list item lazy continuation line and this and this
lists aren't required for this```
Do not use lazy continuation lines as they create hard-to-maintain inconsistencies in the documentation and appear ambiguous in terms of writer intent. Based on your intent, either explicitly connect the lazy continuation to the previous item by removing the newline, or explicitly include a blank line between the list item and the continuation line.
Using the ordered list example, one or the other of the two options below.
```1. this is an ordered list item this is a lazy continuation line and will be part of the previous line so will this so will this
1. this is an ordered list item
this is a lazy continuation line and will be part of the previous line
so will this
so will this```
