There was a problem hiding this comment.
More details
Removing the trailing break tags preserves document structure: standalone Hugo rendering kept card grids, following paragraphs, headings, and ordered lists as separate elements, while the shortcode's existing bottom margin continues to provide spacing. No diff-only behavioral regression was reproduced; the repository-wide build could not run because its external Hugo module was unavailable.
