Classic PEBKAC error. If you wanna quote one item in a numbered list just use the escape character to prevent it from starting it as a new numbered list. Like, if you tried to quote my *asterisks* it would turn the word asterisks italic, which is the exact same issue. But I don't personally think they should remove the asterisks turning things italic, it's a convenient feature.

I'm not saying remove markdown or any of its features, I'm saying use the number provided for ordered lists. This avoids user error and makes for a more predictable user experience. I'm aware of escape characters.

Yeah I'd much much rather have the list automatically re-number everything than have to go do it manually for large lists

And I would rather the other way.
