Really high indentation?

- List  
- Test
  - Test
  - Test

- Test

```plaintext
- List
      - [] Test
    - [] Test
  - [] Test
- [] Test

```

It doesn’t bullet this way, but it does leave behind the dash that looks almost like a bullet.

Actually, here’s a real work-around:

- List
  - ​ Item A
    - ​ Item A.1
      - ​ Item A.1.1
        - ​ Item A.1.1.1

  - ​ Item B

Any `␆` in this example should be replaced with a zero-width space

```plaintext
- List
  - ␆[] Item A
    - ␆[] Item A.1
      - ␆[] Item A.1.1
        - ␆[] Item A.1.1.1
  - ␆[] Item B

```

Zero width space to copy for testing:

```plaintext
​

```
