This is inaccurate.
The following is a perfectly valid list.
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
1. foo
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(+ 1 1)
#+end_src
2. bar
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
Source blocks for languages that have significant whitespace should use
the -i flag.

What makes you think this is not the case?
