Sorry for the slightly late response 😬

Just tested this on a fairly fresh instance, using the default DOMPDF renderer, and I could not reproduce this.
I'll assume this may be instance specific or fixed over the last 4 years or so, so I'll therefore close this off but if this still exists feel free to open a new bug issue, detailing your instance along with specific markdown examples to reproduce the issues.
