display: inline-block makes the link behave like a rectangle, no

I can think of that 1) the padding remains on the preceding line
without painting tha background-color or 2) sticks out of the line box
into the "bullet area" of the li and gets cropped or 3) simply
vanishes into thin air.
The "question why" is hard to answer:

possible related to the problem you encountered are multi-line link
problems:

and each new tool helps.
