Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/DavidAnson/markdownlint/issues/1453

A "Lists should be surrounded by blank lines" error is raised for the line line 2 (L2) in the following code block, even though it's not raised for a very similar code block further up the file.

L1:   <pre><code class="javascript">(function() {
L2:   	cp.execFileSync('rm',  ['-rf', path.join(__dirname, "temp")]); // GOOD
L3:   	cp.execSync(<strong>'rm -rf ' + path.join(__dirname, "temp")</strong>); // BAD

I would not expect this to trigger an error.

You can see an example of this in https://github.com/github/vscode-codeql/pull/3872 where CI is failing when running markdown lint on this file, specifically on this line.

This has started happening with v0.15.0.

I can't tell what's going on from my phone, but here's a minimal repro: https://dlaa.me/markdownlint/#%25m%23%20Heading%0A%0A1.%20Item%0A%20%20%20%3Cpre%3E%0A%20%20%20%5B()%5D%0A%20%20%20%3C%2Fpre%3E%0A%0A%3C!--%20markdownlint-disable-file%20MD033%20--%3E%0A

I'll have a look soon, thanks!
