But, looking at your list above, wouldn’t you create the list with  
hypen-space?

I think doing lists with hyphen-tab (as opposed to hyphen-space) is  
rare unlike putting horizontal lines below headings (that is one of  
the ways you make h2 headings in Markdown) so unless others feel  
strongly about this, I’d prefer to keep the current default behavior.

You can always change it locally if it is clashing with your preferred  
way of entering lists.
