> I mean compare the unordered and ordered list examples. Markdown chose right, AsciiDoc chose wrong. Objectively speaking, you'd choose the Markdown way naturally. In a trivial example, Markdown's syntax looks more natural. It might well be the more appropriate syntax for a short README, which expects to be read as plain text at least as often as rendered to HTML. In real use, i.e. when editing a non-trivial example, AsciiDoctor's multiple-star/dot syntax makes it easier to keep track of things. You can also use the Markdown-style indentation instead anyway: https://docs.asciidoctor.org/asciidoc/latest/lists/ordered/#nested-ordered-list https://docs.asciidoctor.org/asciidoc/latest/lists/ordered/#...
