The bug is that we are still using rfcmarkup to generate the htmlized versions. That was needed in the age of nroff, but since RFC 8650 it is really weird to throw away all the information that the XML has during rendering and then try to guess it back into existence in rfcmarkup. xml2rfc should have an “htmlized” writer, which generates the same layout in the output as the text writer, just in the way that rfcmarkup has been doing it, but with information from the horse’s mouth.
