This seems like an asciidoctor bug, though I think this kind of
list-within-a-list stuff is inherently a bit heuristic-driven just due
to the syntax.

I do agree that the result after your patch is more readable, so I think
I prefer it even if the asciidoctor bug were fixed. I suspect we could
be using "--" blocks for readability in more places (I don't think it's
worth going on a hunt to convert old spots, but something to keep in
mind as we write new documentation).
