Markdown of numbered list with some hyphens doesn't work as expected in preview

Question

I was editing How exactly does __attribute__((constructor)) work? so the unordered list in the question was numbered to better correspond with the answer. I changed the first list item from a '-' to '1.' and in the preview block below, the rest of the list items changed to numbered items. However, when I saved my changes, only the first item was in a numbered list. In this case, the preview is probably incorrect, and should be changed to reflect what will actually be displayed in the question.

Answer 1

(@Jeff) No, you created a list differently than how the OP described it:

...unordered list in the question... I changed the first list item from a '-' to '1.'

Markup:

 1. ichi
 - ni
 - san

Looks in the preview like:

1. ichi
2. ni
3. san

But is rendered finally like:

1. ichi
   • ni
   • san

Answer 2

Let's see:

• uno
  2. dos
  3. tres

markup is:

- uno
2. dos
3. tres
