Fixed, on main. https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/emacs/org-mode.git/commit/?id=26f1cb77a However, what we do for alphabetical bullets on export is slightly different: 3. foo 1. bar 11. baz Other export backends do not preserve alphabetical bullets. Numbers are always used. > On a slightly related note: it seems the COUNTER-SET[1] allows single-letter > values even when org-list-allow-alphabetical is nil.
