- I knew that blank lines are needed in certain places when mixing HTML markup with Markdown so that the Markdown will actually be processed. For example:
- ```
- <details>
- <summary>
- Gory details that are *incredibly* shocking
- </summary>
- Ha, fooled you!
- </details>
- ```
- produces:
- <details>
- <summary>
- Gory details that are *incredibly* shocking
- </summary>
- Ha, fooled you!
- </details>
- A blank line is needed after the `summary` tag. However, adding that introduces a new problem:
- ```
- <details>
- <summary>
- Gory details that are *incredibly* shocking
- </summary>
- Ha, fooled you!
- </details>
- ```
- This looks correct here:
- <details>
- <summary>
- Gory details that are *incredibly* shocking
- </summary>
- Ha, fooled you!
- </details>
- But in the post preview, the label is centered (image for reference):

- Update: it appears that the centering applies to the completed post as well, in some cases. For example, [if `##` markup for `<h2>` tags is used](https://meta.codidact.com/posts/289288/289314#answer-289314).

Trying to use Markdown formatting on detail-section labels causes unexpected centered alignment in preview
