Good find!

I see how this (ab)uses the list marker by creating a new list item
without a new 'term' associated with it. I disliked creating a new list
item when the paragraph logically belongs in the previous list, and I
tried to use various combinations of list continuation markers, play
around with list starts/ends, but couldn't get the paragraph to
dissociate from the 'dev/mem' sublist and associate it back to the
'parent' list.

So I'll take this :)
