Quoting Markdown Guide [1]:

«Markdown applications don’t agree on how to handle a missing space 
between the number signs (|#|) and the heading name. For compatibility, 
always put a space between the number signs and the heading name.»

So at the very least, I am not alone in performing this unbest practise ...

      The above is also not correct. This is correct:
      <br>
      <br>
      Type &lt;p&gt;-[ space character ]List item 1&lt;/p&gt;
